a controller can contain multiple function, each one of them can have a
return dict(afixedname=avalue) ..... when you use an url like
/app/controller/display_a_form or /app/controller/display_a_form2 you may
return the same dict with the same keys for both, the values are the one
that will be different instances and will be serialized accordingly,
generally using to your views/controller/display_a_form.html or
views/controller/display_a_form2.html
