Using Flask WTF.
{{ form.hidden_tag() }} in the html for a form template, but i am seeing CSFR Token priting out on the browser. Have inspected the element:
<label for="csrf_token">Csrf Token</label> == $0 <input id="csrf_token" name="csrf_token" placeholder="Csrf Token" type="hidden" value="1475011760##067826c4e1d9ce6d602eea692b337b2d6b5407e5"> == $0
can anyone see anything odd there?
anyone had this issue before?

Python Web Development Techdegree Graduate 21,199 PointsI had this in my html template
{% for field in form %} {{ field.label }} (1) {{ field(placeholder=field.label.text) }} {% endfor %}
the statement at (1) was rendering CSRF Token to the browser.
incidently, I seems that the for loop above, if you remove the field.label part, does indeed make a html element for the csrf token, seemingly without explicitly stating {{ field.hidden_tags() }}
