After submit the form view will upload chosen number of flashcards from chosen category.

Don't understand how to logout of FusionAuth from Django Application
I am writing a Django app that uses a 3rd-Party Authentication Service implemented with FusionAuth. I can successfully register and login (using the authorization code flow). However, logging out is not working. I can logout from the local Django app, but when I try to login after that FusionAuth recognizes that my access_token is still valid and just goes directly to the redirect page (the page you usually goto after successfully logging into FusionAuth). Clearly I don't understand something about FusionAuth. I have tried both the python client and the restful API and I don't really understand what it does. According to the documentation it "...is intended to be used to remove the refresh token and access token cookies if they exist on the client and revoke the refresh token". Why then is the access_token still valid? -

When you insert a text value that contains quotation marks or an apostrophe, it is truncated
When pasting a text value containing quotes or an apostrophe using jQuery into a value field, it is truncated at that character. I know about single and double quotes. The text can be anything.

How to do transactions with Metamask and Python?
I am trying to develop a web app based on Django. The application has a button which should open Metamask in order to perform a payment transaction. In order to do so, I found some tutorials which suggest to use the JSON-RPC API or in other words, I need to add some javascript code which opens Metamask and asks to confirm the transaction. Here is my question: is there some way to achieve the same result but using only Python code which could be embedded in the Django back-end? I saw there is a library called web3.py which allows to do something similar but does not open the Metamask plug-in and therefore it lacks the nice interface. -
