Design a form

[Madhvi gupta]

I am trying to use web.py to design an web app. As a first step I
tried to use example given at http://webpy.org/form#example, but I am
not able to do so. I am confused in where to keep sample
formtest.html. I am working on mac OS X and python 2.6. Please help me
as I am new to this.

Regards,
Madhvi

The templates/ directory typically be in the same place where your code is.

Sorry for bothering you but I am not getting what is wrong.
I made two file one is code.py and formtest.html according to http://webpy.org/form. I kept formtest.html in templates folder. Then I compiled code. py by using command python code.py and then open the local host. It gave me a number of errors PFA. I am not getting what is wrong here please help me.

Looks like you have "$def with (form)" in the middle of the template.
That is supposed to be start of the template.

Have you added anything more to the formtest.html?

I checked it is in the starting of the file only. And I have not added anything to formtest.html.

From the stack trace it looks like you have the following line in your template.

<p class="p1">$def with (form)</p>

Hello,
       I want to make a web app using web.py which takes input from user that is username and password, and in turn communicates with google server. I am not sure how should I proceed. I thought of making a form which ask for username and password and then pass it to that python function. Please tell me if I am on right path?

I don't think taking username/password is a good idea. You should use OAuth instead. That will take a user to google login page and redirects to your app with a token, which you can use to talk to google services.

I have written a python script which communicates with google server using gdata API. Now I want to write a google chrome extension which only allows java script and html. So, I thought of hosting a web app using web.py which fulfill my requirement. Please guide me how should I proceed further.
