Question, how to get the list of drop down menu from request.vars using 
manual form as in the book example (chapter 7) below. 

If I do the followiing. I get the input values via request.vars but it 
doesn't work for the drop down. 



 <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="{{=URL('default', 
'form_search')}}" method="post">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="text" name="name" class="project_listsec_top_inpt" />
</td>

<td>
<select class="project_listsec_top_slct">
<option>All</option>
<option>Option 1</option>
<option>Option 2</option>
<option>Option 3</option>
<option>Option 4</option>
       </select>
</td>

<td> 
<input type="submit" value = "submit" class="project_listsec_top_btn" /> 
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</form>


In controller,

If I insert anything to the input field I get

request.vars
<Storage {'name': 'hello'}>

But for drop down select if I pick option1
request.vars
<Storage {'name': ''}>
