goopen: Yep! I subscribe to it :)

therocode: thanks ill check em out :)

No worries!

if i want to check whether i am receiving a POST request, do i use request.POST or request.method=='POST'? The second one is used to check for empty data submitted with the POST request so it wouldn't necessarily tell me whether it's a POST request, right?

it could still return false if there is no data?

request.method tells you what the HTTP request method was. If you're trying to find out if the HTTP request method was POST, then you should be checking request.method :)

so why do we use request.POST

or why is it there for

request.POST holds the data submitted in the request.

(if it was a POST)

ah

request.method is a string, request.POST is a dictionary.

request.GET is also a dictionary :)

so what would happen if i did request.POST to check for a POST request? If it's a POST request and there is data it would return true but if it's a POST request and there is no data it would return false? Or does it just return null if it's empty?

if request.POST:

and would it give an error if you used request.POST when it's a GET request?

Off the top of my head I don't know. I just know that you should instead do "if request.method == 'POST'"

And then access things you care about from request.POST if that check passes.

okay thanks

:D

Looks like if it's empty it's boolean False.

So if the method was POST but no data, doing "if request.POST" will not work.
