I have the following route that is getting values from a submitted form
@app.route('/authenticate', methods=["POST"])
def authenticate():
username = request.form['username']
print(username, file = sys.stderr)
password = request.form['password']
email = request.form['email']
models.User.create_user(email, password, username)
return render_template('signup.html')
The problem I'm running into is that I'm getting a Bad Request The browser (or proxy) sent a request that this server could not understand.
I have checked that I am correctly getting the values from the form, and that all the forms have content in them, but It's not seeming to work.
Here is the template that renders the view
<form action ="/authenticate" method="POST" id="signup">
<fieldset class="form-group">
<label for="InputUsername"> Username </label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" name="username" id="InputUsername" placeholder="Enter username">
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="form-group">
<label for="exampleInputEmail1">Email address</label>
<input type="email" class="form-control" name="email"id="exampleInputEmail1" placeholder="Enter email">
<small class="text-muted">We'll never share your email with anyone else.</small>
</fieldset>
<fieldset class="form-group">
<label for="exampleInputPassword1">Password</label>
<input type="password" class="form-control" name="password "id="exampleInputPassword1" placeholder="Password">
</fieldset>
</form>
and here is my view class that the forms are on
@app.route('/signup')
def login():
return render_template("signup.html")
