The \class{FieldStorage} instance can be indexed like a Python
dictionary, and also supports the standard dictionary methods
\function{has_key()} and \function{keys()}.
Form fields containing empty strings are ignored
and do not appear in the dictionary; to keep such values, provide
the optional \samp{keep_blank_values} argument when creating the
\class {FieldStorage} instance.

Here the fields, accessed through \samp{form[\var{key}]}, are
themselves instances of \class{FieldStorage} (or
\class{MiniFieldStorage}, depending on the form encoding).
The \member{value} attribute of the instance yields the string value
of the field. The \function{getvalue()} method returns this string value
directly; it also accepts an optional second argument as a default to
return if the requested key is not present.
If the submitted form data contains more than one field with the same
name, the object retrieved by \samp{form[\var{key}]} is not a
\class{FieldStorage} or \class{MiniFieldStorage}
instance but a list of such instances. If you expect this possibility

\samp{form.getvalue(\var{key})} would return a list of strings.
