Maybe this doesn't fully apply to you. But when I searched for this, your question was the first Stackoverflow question.

I just wanted to get basic POST data out in Django. So just using GET worked fine for me. As the others stated, it might be easier to better format whatever script is creating the query.

Basically I have a AJAX doing a post towards Django, the POST looks a bit like this:

params = name=somename&data=abcdefg
http.send(params);

then in my view.py, i did this :

def somefuntion(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        log.info('POST applied')
        alldata=request.POST
        log.debug(alldata)
        data = alldata.get("data", "0")
        name = alldata.get("name", "0")
        log.info("POST name: " + name)
        log.info("POST data: " + data)

The output of alldata was :

and the get commands give :

name: somename
data: abcdefg
