trying to use cgi to get html form data
#4
Hi,

Quote: Looking around, i found that it could be possible with cgi.
Outdated for at least ten years, as already explained above.

Quote:Also, i was running short on time, and so i decided to stick with cgi only.
Wrong decision for sure. CGI is, compared to WSGI and frameworks like Flask, super complicated and it's easy to make mistakes. With Flask, it is so much easier and faster.
Except this, nobody will seriously give you any support for Python CGI questions because it is outdated dead.

So do yourself a favor, throw away your CGI-based program and re-write using a WSGI framework. The positive side effect: you can throw away the XAMPP stack as well.
