Question

I have a input type defined as:

<input type="text" name="username" value="{{ username}}" />

How can I take data from this input box? Are there a get method for taking those text from input box? I know this is simple question, but I am trying to learn them.

It depends on the request.method, in your view:

if request.method == 'POST':
    username = request.POST.get('username')
else:
    username = request.GET.get('username')
