How would I go about storing values of radio buttons in mysql using python

Hi,

So I have created a table in python which will have an id, a date and a tinyint for the value of a radio button.

I'm getting confused on how I would go about storing the value of the radio button in the db.

So in my code I would want four radio buttons with one set to default;

<form action="">
  <input type="radio" name="priority" value="one" checked> 1<br>
  <input type="radio" name="priority" value="two"> 2<br>
  <input type="radio" name="priority" value="three"> 3<br>
 <input type="radio" name="priority" value="Four">4<br> 

</form>

If I am using python flask, would this pick the default value up using the tinyint?

Well the request.POST will have the values that have been selected on the form.

create a view function to handle the request and set the form action='url_of_view_path' and method as POST
