Yes, form data submitted using the POST method can be displayed in various ways in a Flask application. Here are a few common methods:

1. Render a Template: After processing the form data in your Flask route, you can render a template with the submitted data displayed. You can pass the form data as variables to the template and use Jinja2 templating to display them.

   Example:

   [dm_code_snippet background=”yes” background-mobile=”yes” slim=”no” line-numbers=”no” bg-color=”#abb8c3″ theme=”dark” language=”php” wrapped=”no” height=”” copy-text=”Copy Code” copy-confirmed=”Copied”]

   from flask import Flask, render_template, request
   
   app = Flask(__name__)
   
   @app.route('/submit', methods=['POST'])
   def submit():
       name = request.form['name']
       email = request.form['email']
       return render_template('submitted.html', name=name, email=email)
   
   if __name__ == '__main__':
       app.run(debug=True)
   

   [/dm_code_snippet]

In the submitted.html template:

[dm_code_snippet background=”yes” background-mobile=”yes” slim=”no” line-numbers=”no” bg-color=”#abb8c3″ theme=”dark” language=”markup” wrapped=”no” height=”” copy-text=”Copy Code” copy-confirmed=”Copied”]

<h1>Form Submitted Successfully</h1>
<p>Name: {{ name }}</p>
<p>Email: {{ email }}</p>

[/dm_code_snippet]

Flash Messages: You can use Flask’s flash messaging to display a message to the user with the submitted data.

Example:

[dm_code_snippet background=”yes” background-mobile=”yes” slim=”no” line-numbers=”no” bg-color=”#abb8c3″ theme=”dark” language=”markup” wrapped=”no” height=”” copy-text=”Copy Code” copy-confirmed=”Copied”]

from flask import Flask, render_template, request, flash, redirect, url_for

app = Flask(__name__)
app.secret_key = 'your_secret_key'

@app.route('/submit', methods=['POST'])
def submit():
    name = request.form['name']
    email = request.form['email']
    flash(f'Form submitted successfully. Name: {name}, Email: {email}')
    return redirect(url_for('index'))

@app.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template('index.html')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

[/dm_code_snippet]

1. In your template, you would need to include code to display the flashed messages.
2. Return JSON Response: If you’re building an API or need to return the data in JSON format, you can return a JSON response containing the submitted data.

   Example:

3. [dm_code_snippet background=”yes” background-mobile=”yes” slim=”no” line-numbers=”no” bg-color=”#abb8c3″ theme=”dark” language=”markup” wrapped=”no” height=”” copy-text=”Copy Code” copy-confirmed=”Copied”]

   from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
   
   app = Flask(__name__)
   
   @app.route('/submit', methods=['POST'])
   def submit():
       data = {
           'name': request.form['name'],
           'email': request.form['email']
       }
       return jsonify(data)
   
   if __name__ == '__main__':
       app.run(debug=True)
   

   [/dm_code_snippet]

These are just a few examples, but you can customize how the submitted form data is displayed or processed based on your application’s requirements.
