Hi all
I have just joined the site , as i have posted on other forums and i have had no replies back. I have a file named index.py and in this i have def index() and def show(), when i access localhost/index or localhost/index.py or localhost/index.py/show or localhost/index/show it works fine but when i access localhost/show it comes up say that it cant be found even though its clearly in the code below def show(). I read a tutorial somewhere that said whateveryouwanthere() can be accessed by /whateveryouwanthere or index/whateveryouwanthere or index.py/whateveryouwanthere, but how comes everything else works apart from localhost/show.
code is :
import cgi
def index():
s = """\
<html><body>
<form method="get" action="/show">
<p>Type a word: <input type="text" name="word">
<input type="submit" value="Get"</p>
</form></body></html>
"""
return s
# Receive the Request object
def show(req):
# The getfirst() method returns the value of the first field with the
# name passed as the method argument
word = req.form.getfirst('word', '')
# Escape the user input to avoid script injection attacks
word = cgi.escape(word)
s = """\
<html><body>
<p>The submitted word was "%s"</p>
<p><a href="./index">Submit another word!</a></p>
</body></html>
"""
return s % wordAny ideas why its not working
Many thanks
Paul
