form.accepts()

All the work is done by the accepts method of the form object. It filters the request.vars according to the declared requirements (expressed by validators). accepts stores those variables that pass validation into form.vars. 

The accepts function returns True if the form is accepted and False otherwise. A form is not accepted if it has errors or when it has not been submitted (for example, the first time it is shown).



form.accepts(vars, session=None, formname='default',

             keepvalues=False, onvalidation=None,

             dbio=True, hideerror=False):

Attributes / Arguments

The first argument can be request.vars or request.get_vars or request.post_vars or simply request. The latter is equivalent to accepting as input the request.post_vars.
