I'm sorry I should have put this in developers/xslt ... and I wouldn't double post but I've not had much luck editing in this forum to date.

Can someone please move this to the appropriate section?

Here's a simple form debug python script - allows for simple verficiation of posted form values for rapid development. That is if you want to make sure your form values are getting posted correctly before you write a production form handler

For this simple form:

<corespin:Macro Alias="RequestVariables" runat="server" />

<form action="" method="post">
 <input type="text" value='desu' id='desu' name='desu' />
    <input type="text" value='liek' id='mudkips' name='mudkips' />
  <input type="text" value='skippy' id='pb' name='pb' />
  <input type='submit' />
</form>

 Create this Macro:

import System
import System.IO
import sys
import re #regular expressions
import clr

from System import *
from System.IO import *
from System.Text import *
from System.Net import *
clr.AddReference('System.Web')
from System.Web.HttpContext import Current



# super simple form validation
#create a dictionary list of expected fields from form submission [make sure input field ids to match key names]
allowed_fields = { 
   'desu': '',
   'mudkips': '',
    'pb': ''
};


print '<pre>'


print 'before processing'
for key in allowed_fields:
    print key + '=' + allowed_fields[key]
print ''

requestType = Current.Request.RequestType
if requestType=='POST':
    PostedForm = Current.Request.Form
    for key in PostedForm:
        print 'POST:' + key + '=' + PostedForm[key]
        key_exists = allowed_fields.has_key(key)
        if key_exists: 
            allowed_fields[key] = PostedForm[key]       


print ''
print 'after processing'
for key in allowed_fields:
    print key + '=' + allowed_fields[key]
           
print '</pre>'

#simple

You could of course extend this to print out discarded / invalid posted values as well for further validation.
