Python Mechanize select a form with no name


Try:

br.select_form(nr=0)

to select the first form

In Mechanize source,

def select_form(self, name=None, predicate=None, <b>nr=None</b>):    """    ...    nr, if supplied, is the sequence number of the form (where 0 is the    first).    """


If you want to execute code for multiple forms no matter what their name is, you can loop over every form letting your script knowing which form will work next.

currentForm = 0for form in br.forms(): # Iterate over the forms        br.select_form(nr = currentForm) # Select the form        '''        The code you want to run for every form        '''        currentForm += 1 # Add 1 to the current working form so the script knows what form is working next
