Django request get parameters
You may also use:
request.POST.get('section','') # => [39]request.POST.get('MAINS','') # => [137] request.GET.get('section','') # => [39]request.GET.get('MAINS','') # => [137]Using this ensures that you don't get an error. If the POST/GET data with any key is not defined then instead of raising an exception the fallback value (second argument of .get() will be used).
You can use [] to extract values from a QueryDict object like you would any ordinary dictionary.
