I'm processing GET and POST data and I would like the functional
inverse of urllib.urlencode(). That is, split the string apart by
the '&' chars, split each of those by '=' and build a dict of the
results. The key and the value should be passed to unquote_plus().
Here is my solution, comments?
>>> def urldecode(s):
... rslt = {}
... for item in s.split('&'):
... keyValue = item.split('=')
... rslt[ urllib.unquote_plus(keyValue[0]) ] =
urllib.unquote_plus(keyValue[1])
... return rslt
...
>>> urldecode('a=b+c&d%26e=%20f')
{'a': 'b c', 'd&e': ' f'}
>>>
