[Answer]-Processing POST request in Django

Adding a “forms” portion to your setup will help you greatly… see the quickstart docs on forms here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/forms/

In particular, check out “using a form in a view”: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/forms/#using-a-form-in-a-view

Basically, you end up with a “forms.py” file which defines your form fields. Then, after it all processes, you get a simplier API into your form fields that looks like this:

form.cleaned_data['recipient']
form.cleaned_data['content']

etc.
