tut03_get_and_post.py

Revision 1837 (checked in by fumanchu, 1 year ago)

Fix for #756 (Deprecate server.quickstart):

server.quickstart now does nothing but raise a warning.
Made 'root' argument to cherrypy.quickstart optional (to make tutorials easier, but it applies broadly).
Removed all calls to server.quickstart.
