I have one last question on this particular script. I am using the following line to print out the post data:
for key in form: print "%s: %s<br>" % (key, form[key].value)
The difficulty is that sometimes you have a single value and sometimes you have a list. If you use form.getlist(key) you will always get a list and you can process it like this:
for key in form: datalist = form.getlist(key) # always returns a list value = ', '.join(datalist) # turn the list into a string of comma-separated values print "%s: %s<br>" % (key, value)

It works fine except for when the key is to a list object made by the following select statement:
<select id="prod[]" name="prod[]" multiple="multiple" size="4"> <option id="MB" name="MB">Motherboards</option> <option id="CPU" name="CPU">Processors</option> <option id="Case" name="Case">Cases</option> <option id="Power" name="Power">Power Supplies</option> <option id="Mem" name="Mem">Memory</option> <option id="HD" name="HD">Hard Drives</option> <option id="Periph" name="Periph">Peripherals</option> </select>
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'value' args = ("'list' object has no attribute 'value'",)
How does one traverse a list object to get the selected data?
Thanks for any help. Vicki
