Hi;
I have a form that I need to send to a script and then send off to
a URL
(PayPal). I need to process it through the script to renumber
things for
PP. How do I do this? I imagine I add an element to the PT like so:
<form action="renumberTheCart(here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff)"
method="post">
but I need to pass a parameter "doc", which, of course, is the
document
I'm submitting. So I tried this:
<form action="renumberTheCart(here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff)"
method="post">
<p metal:use-macro="here/CheckOutAfterEditStuff/macros/main" />
You might check out the basics about HTML forms first. The 'action'
parameter is an URL and *not* some Python-like function call. You
specify the destination URL inside the action attribute and pass
the parameters as *hidden* form parameters to the URL - either
using method GET or POST.
You'll find more on forms in any HTML tutorial. Start from here:
<http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp>
If you're uploading a file you'll want to also add enctype="multipart/
form-data" to the form tag. I usually add it by default.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4
"The content type "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" is inefficient
for sending large quantities of binary data or text containing non-
ASCII characters. The content type "multipart/form-data" should be
used for submitting forms that contain files, non-ASCII data, and
binary data."
