python code line for get value from the form
pass = form.getvalue('name',)
when i try to set form data value to this 'pass' variable it gives two errors near the equal mark.
End of statement expected.
Statement expected, found py:EQ
Why?

you're unlucky enough to have stumbled on a python keyword (the null statement that does nothing except make indentation happy).
hich is currently:
['and', 'as', 'assert', 'break', 'class', 'continue', 'def', 'del', 'elif',
'else', 'except', 'exec', 'finally', 'for', 'from', 'global', 'if', 'import',
'in', 'is', 'lambda', 'not', 'or', 'pass', 'print', 'raise', 'return', 'try',
'while', 'with', 'yield']
(from Is it possible to get a list of keywords in Python?)
As opposed to built-in functions like sum or list, keywords cannot be used / overridden without triggering strange syntax errors.

I didn't find any duplicate to this basic err, python :)) question so I answered as community wiki. If someone finds a proper duplicate feel free to suggest / close
passis a keyword. don't use it as a variable.
