Dear Salman,
before anyone can really answer your question you need to decide if you
are going to use servlets or psp to render your pages / process your
content. The webware docs are pretty good about telling you what
functions do what and I think there is still a pretty good page showing
you the basics of both psp and servlets.
as for an IDE there are lots of very good python IDE's out there pick
you favorite, if you don't have one give SPE a try (google SPE and
python) I think its one of the best out there.
on your form, if you leave the box unchecked I don't think anything will
be sent in the get/post data for that variable, so you will first have
to check to see if the variable exists in the get/post data. I would
suggest wrapping your variable assignment in either an if statement
like:
if 'Donit' in self.request().fields():
f1 = self.request().field('Donit')
else:
f1 = None
Or using a try statement:
try:
f1 = self.request().fields('Donit')
except:
f1 = None
Both will work just fine
