Re: POST URL questions

[Ramón Carrillo]

Hi,

POST variables are appended to the HTTP request body instead of the URL [0].

If you want a variable to be available in the request.POST dictionary,
the browser must send it as a POST variable (in the request body). You
could use a hidden input to do it:

<form method="post" ...>
<input type="hidden" name="userid" value="{{ request.user_id }}">
</form>
