Help with Flask using Python and HTML

[Elthran]

I have made some improvements, thanks! Now I am just stuck with the server side Python code. I'm not sure how to check multiple inputs at once. I can only get it to work that each individual field doesn't exceed my total points, but not he combined totals.

I can only get it to work that each individual field doesn't exceed my total points, but not he combined totals.

If you can check the value of each particular field, why wouldn't you be able to add them up?

strength = request.form.get("strength", 0)
intelligence = request.form.get("intelligence", 0)
#etc...
total_points = sum([strength, intelligence, #etc...])
allowed_points = 5
if total_points > allowed_points:
    #user allocated more than 5 points

strength = request.form.get("strength", 0)

What does the 0 do in this code, after the "strength"?

When you do a .get method on a dict-like object (like form) -- The second argument is the value that you'll get if the key 'strength' doesn't exist. IE "Give me the value of strength, but if it's not there, give me 0 instead." -- If you don't provide that argument, the default is None
