django - getlist()
django, python
Solution
jQuery POST's arrays with the `[]` suffix because PHP and some web frameworks understand that convention, and re-build the array on the server-side for you automatically. Django doesn't work that way, but you should be able to access the data via:
ukeys = request.POST.getlist('ukeys[]')
Problem
I just posted this question jQuery - passing arrays in post request, where I don't to send arrays in post request, but there is no problem in jQuery code. The problem is with receiving the POST request in django. I did like this. ``` def portfolio_add(request): ukeys = request.POST.getlist('ukeys') ........etc....... ``` But I'm getting ukeys values as `u'[]'`. When I checked with just `request.POST` I got the values as `u"<QueryDict: {u'ukeys[]': [u'68c04', u'16149']}>"` So, How to get those values as a list in Django? Thanks!
