do you by any chance use a page where /a/c/f?numtofind=32193129 is allowed
? if yes, you got yourself played cutting and pasting without thinking too
much.... :D
what you should inspect is not request.vars.numtofind but
form.vars.numtofind.
request.vars.numtofind will hold ANY value submitted as a query string
(?numtofind=23112312) AND submitted with the form .
that's why there is request.get_vars and request.post_vars ....
request.vars is a union of the two.
