what trying similar question asked here: send info textbox flask? except text box.. have checkboxes.

but error:

not found requested url not found on server. if entered url manually please check spelling , seek again.

my server side code (in flask) is:

@app.route('/raw_text.html') def home (): file = "sample.xml" contents = open(file).read() contents = contents.decode('utf-8') homecoming render_template('raw_text.html', contents=contents,file=file) @app.route('/raw_text.html',methods=['post']) def get_data(): print "request ",request.form() info = request.form['raw_text'] print info homecoming "processed"

any suggestions. thanks

a few things:

your checkbox elements need name attribute, used when info sent end. each checkbox related each other needs have same name.

your action attribute needs point url. if posting same page form, can remove attribute.

id's cannot contain spaces.

to accessible check boxes need <label>s,
