Introduction
This product contains the core functions and classes for making
HTTP POST requests to send data to forms. For the most part
it consists of the post_multipart utility, for posting data to
a form.
While originally written for GroupServer, there is nothing
specific to GroupServer in this product.


post_multipart
The gs.form.post_multipart function is used to post data to a
form:
post_multipart(host, selector, fields, files=[], usessl=False)
See the documentation for more on how to use this function.


Acknowledgements
The post_multipart code was based on a Python recipe by Wade
Leftwich. It was changed to use email.multipart to create
the multipart document that is sent using a POST.
The Python standard library currently lacks a module for making a
POST to a Web server. Issue 3244 tracks the inclusion of a
module into the standard library.
