[twill] forms

[Kevin Boers]

Hi,

It's trivial to get at the mechanize ClientForm instances. You might try:

forms = list(twill.showforms())

That would return (e.g., on a site of ours with 2 forms):

[<_mechanize_dist.ClientForm.HTMLForm instance at 0x1010c0cb0>, <_mechanize_dist.ClientForm.HTMLForm instance at 0x1010c0f38>]

Hope that helps,
Kevin

hello,
is there a direct way to check how many forms the page returned has?
from the docs:
showforms -- show all of the forms on the current page. When called
from Python, this function returns a list of the forms.

but if i do
b = twill.get_browser()
forms = b.showforms()
print len(forms)

i get
TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

thanks
