[Trac-dev] Accessing form elements embedded in wiki-pages

[f***@gmail.com]

Hi trac-gurus!

I am working on a small plugin:

1. I want to list certain tickets and display some of their fields. For
that purpose I created a WikiMacro - this works fine.

2. I also want to select certain of these tickets and perform a custom
action on them. So, my WikiMakro also emits a form and a checkbox (<input
type="checkbox" ...) for each ticket and I created another WikiMacro that
simply creates a button (<input type="submit" ... ). Finally, I implemented
an IRequestHandler that intercepts those requests that are created by
button presses. And now I have a problem!

Problem:

How can I access the checkboxes and their values emitted by my WikiMacro?

I already had a look into the TracFormsPlugins, but I think this plugin
explicitly stores the form elements in the DB. I would prefer to get all
the form elements that are part of the POST-request and filter those to
find the interesting elements.

Best regards,
Fabian Scheler

Hi trac-gurus!

OK - I caused this problem by myself: I simply messed up my form. Now I can
access the values of the form elements via the args-property of the Request.
