Using CherryPy, you can name the variables the same and then you'll
get lists in. For example,
<input type="text" name="foo" py:for="foo in foos"/>
Will give you an input field for each item in the list. In your
controller method:
def updatefoo(self, foo):
if not isinstance(foo, list):
foo = [foo]
for i in range(0, len(foo)):
do whatever it is you do with foos
The thing to watch out for is checkboxes, because the browser doesn't
send a value for unchecked checkboxes.
I just thought I'd point this out in case it works better for you for
this particular problem. The FormEncode route should work well as
well.
