Using forms with the Django outputs the token

I would really appreciate if you can give a hand with this. What I'm trying to do it's just to render the value of some text label, but it gives me the token.

I'm learning django I hope you can comprehend.

The result of this is:

eee 12121 csrfmiddlewaretoken yYvl3neQZSP33vSRNto3FUFa88AMeFQi

view.

def test(request):
    if request.method == "POST":
        response = ''
        for key, value in request.POST.items():
            response += '%s %s\n' % (key, value)

        return HttpResponse(response) 

    return render(request, 'datos2.html')

datos2.

<form action="/test" method="post"> {% csrf_token %}
<input type="text" name="eee">
<input type="submit">
</form>


<p>ADD VALUE</p>

<button onclick="myFunction()">ADD</button>

<script>
function myFunction() {
    var x = document.createElement("INPUT");
    x.setAttribute("type", "text");
    x.setAttribute("value", "0");
    x.setAttribute("name", "eee");
    document.body.appendChild(x);
}
</script>

You are looping over all the elements in the POST array in this snippet of code

for key, value in request.POST.items():
    response += '%s %s\n' % (key, value)

I believe, if i understand your question, that what you are after is simply request.POST.get('eee')
