import cgitb
cgitb.enable()
print("Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8")

Get Inputs from Form

nano index.py

#!/usr/bin/python

# Import modules for CGI handling
import cgi, cgitb

# Create instance of FieldStorage
#form = cgi.FieldStorage()

# Get data from fields
#first_name = form.getvalue('first_name')
#last_name  = form.getvalue('last_name')
