#Beginnerlevel Form sending get instead of post request

[chaitanya sakoji]

Previously this code was sending post request. Suddenly after restarting server, it started sending get. If I take some working post code for form from internet and then go on trying and erasing then my code starts sending post request. But again after some time when I put my original code, this will start sending get request instead of post request.

user_registration_form.html

<form method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form }}
</form>
<input type="submit" value="Register">

 forms.py

from django.forms import ModelForm
from django import forms
from .models import StudentData


class StudentRegister(ModelForm):

class Meta:
model = StudentData
fields = "__all__"
widgets = {'password': forms.PasswordInput(),
'rpassword': forms.PasswordInput()}

def clean(self):
cleaned_data = super().clean()
password, rpassword = cleaned_data.get('password'), cleaned_data.get('rpassword')
if password != rpassword:
error_msg = "Both passwords must match"
self.add_error('rpassword', error_msg)


views.py

from django.shortcuts import render
from .forms import StudentRegister
from django.contrib import messages


def login_register(request):
return render(request, 'users/login_register.html')


def guest_register(request):
return render(request, 'users/guest_register.html')


def student_data(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
print('post')
form = StudentRegister(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
print('valid form')
form.save()
messages.success(request, f"You are registered successfully, {form.cleaned_data.get('name')}")
return render(request, "<h3>Registration done</h3>")
else:
print('get')
form = StudentRegister()
return render(request, 'users/user_registration_form.html', {'form': form})

model.py

from django.db import models
from django.core.validators import MaxLengthValidator


class StudentData(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
room_no = models.CharField(max_length=4)
email = models.EmailField()
mobile = models.CharField(max_length=10)
password = models.CharField(max_length=20)
rpassword = models.CharField(max_length=20)

def __str__(self):
return f'{self.name} data'

Thanks,

I *think* I might understand what you mean.

The code you posted doesn't send anything. It handles POST request sent
from your browser. If you load a page with your browser normally, it
will send a GET request.

My guess is, that you've sent a POST request to the page (which works
fine) and then you load the same page in your browser sending a GET request.

Could that explain it.

Just to be clear. Your code will not start changing behavior without you
doing anything (self modifying code is indeed a thing, but that's not
relevant here at all).

Kind regards,

Kasper Laudrup

I think it's because tour submit button IS not in the form
