Using webapp2, how can I get the value of a form's "name" attribute during a POST request?

Question

Code:

<form role="form" name="upload_type" action="/upload" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">

I would like to inform my application to what type of form is being submitted by a user. I thought I could use the form's "name" attribute but can not figure out how to retrieve this value using webapp2.

Did you try validating your HTML? validate.w3c.org – Niklas Rosencrantz May 07 '16 at 08:35 — Niklas Rosencrantz, May 07 '16 at 08:35

For your python html forms I recommend wtforms which will help you get everything about your form in webapp2 in one line of code python. You can read the manual about wtforms and what it can do. I recommend it for all your python forms.
