Typing information from a list

Asked by Stacey Cochran

We are looking for a way to pull information from a csv file for a registration process. Each page in the registration will have all the same information, with the exception of the email address, which we want to pull from a csv file. So it would open registration page, enter an email from the csv file, enter a generic password and verify password (same for all entries) and the same answer to a registration question and information, complete the registration and enter another, this time using the next email in the list. I can manage all put entering the information from the list....any help?

I understand your goals.

But what are your questions?

Hope you do not mean, that we write your script.

What have you done so far?

I was hoping :)

Actually, just pointing me where to find the documentation on referencing a text file, entering the data line, advancing a line, etc...

These are basic Python features. (http://docs.python.org/tutorial/inputoutput.html#reading-and-writing-files)
You need some basic Python knowledge.

csv = open("path-to-csv-file)

csv.readlines() # returns all records as list

csv.close() # closes the file

csv.readline() # returns the next line, None if no more there

The rest is looping and string handling.

Can you help with this problem?
