I've been using tw a lot lately, and it has proved to be amazingly accommodating for the supposed fancy stuff I'm trying to do(lots of integration with jquery plugins). It seems to hold up pretty well, though I'll admit I suspect I may be stretching it a little past it's original intent and likely doing something wrong or inefficient or eventually unsupported. Can you elaborate on the hacks/voodoo you've had to do? as for the OP's dilemma for form variables... I feel your pain. here's what I did which at least to me seemed to cut down on the cruft a little bit. I wrote a util function and dropped it in my helpers.py ... def gather(fields,d): result = [] for f in fields: if d.has_key(f) and d[f].strip()!='': result.append(d[f]) else: result.append(None) return result and the first line of my controller methods now looks something like this..... class CommentController(BaseController): def post_comment(self): entry_id,parent_id,subject,content,topic_id = h.gather (('entry_id','parent_id','subject','content','topic_id'),request.params) ... I don't know if that's any better, but it made me feel like it was a rigid/solid way to get the vars. Someone smarter than me could probably point out how gather could just be implemented with map and maybe even generators. But hey, it works for me. :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
