- One form of my page contains this : <input type="hidden" name="rP" value="{{ queryCar }}" />. So I get this value in my view ( request.POST.get("rP","") ) but this value is unicodeYassVegas– YassVegas2015-08-12 12:26:31 +00:00Commented Aug 12, 2015 at 12:26
- 1OK, thank you. Must you keep that page as it is or can you change it? If so, what is the purpose of such field? I am trying to understand if there is a better way around this.Pynchia– Pynchia2015-08-12 12:35:08 +00:00Commented Aug 12, 2015 at 12:35

- 2You can't output a queryset in a form field and pass it back through http post. HTML doesn't know anything about querysets. You'll need to work out some way of passing a simple value which indicates which queryset you want to use.Daniel Roseman– Daniel Roseman2015-08-12 12:42:11 +00:00Commented Aug 12, 2015 at 12:42

This is the function I wrote to convert unicode into string which i then process according to my need. _in_unicode is the parameter passed to this function, which takes an input of type unicode.
def unicode_to_string(_in_unicode): return unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', _in_unicode).encode('ascii', 'ignore') You will have to write a parser to process that string and then convert it into proper format for data processing.
P.S: If you are downvoting, please add comment for the reason.
