Hi;
I have the following code:

import cgitb; cgitb.enable()
import cgi
import MySQLdb
from login import login
user, passwd, db, host = login()
db = MySQLdb.connect(host, user, passwd, db)
cursor= db.cursor()
form = cgi.FieldStorage()
pic1 = form.getfirst('pic1')
cursor.execute('update products set pic1=%s where ID=1;' % pic1)

which throws the following error:

 /var/www/html/angrynates.com/cart/addEdit.py
   81   print '<body>\n</html>'
   82   db.commit()
   83   cursor.close()
   84
   85 add_edit()
add_edit = <function add_edit>

   63     id = 0
   64     pic1 = form.getfirst('pic1')
   65     cursor.execute('update products set pic1=%s where ID=1;' % pic1)
   66 #    while id < len(pics):
   67 #      cursor.execute('update products set %s=%s where ID=%s;',
(colNamesPics[id], pics[id], str(id)))
cursor = <MySQLdb.cursors.Cursor object>, cursor.execute = <bound method

      start = 25


So I added UTF-8 encoding and got this error:


A problem occurred in a Python script. Here is the sequence of function
calls leading up to the error, in the order they occurred.

      reason = 'unexpected code byte'

So then I added UTF-16 encoding and got this error:

   63     id = 0
   64     pic1 = unicode(form.getfirst('pic1'), 'utf-16')
   65     cursor.execute('update products set pic1=%s where ID=1;' % pic1)
   66 #    while id < len(pics):

      args = ('utf16',

      encoding = 'utf16'
      end = 2
      object =

      reason = 'illegal UTF-16 surrogate'
      start = 0


Finally, I tried UTF-32 encoding and got this error:


/var/www/html/angrynates.com/cart/addEdit.py
   81   print '<body>\n</html>'
   82   db.commit()
   83   cursor.close()
   84
   85 add_edit()
add_edit = <function add_edit>
 /var/www/html/angrynates.com/cart/addEdit.py in add_edit()
   62     sql = 'update products set %s;' % sqlUpdate
   63     id = 0
   64     pic1 = unicode(form.getfirst('pic1'), 'utf-32')
   65     cursor.execute('update products set pic1=%s where ID=1;' % pic1)
   66 #    while id < len(pics):
pic1 undefined, builtin unicode = <type 'unicode'>, form =
FieldStorage(None, None, [FieldStorage('whatDo',...e('pic2', '', ''),
FieldStorage('pic3', '', '')]), form.getfirst = <bound method
FieldStorage.getfirst of FieldStor...('pic2', '', ''), FieldStorage('pic3',
'', '')])>

LookupError: unknown encoding: utf-32
      args = ('unknown encoding: utf-32',)


Please advise.
TIA,
Victor
