Parse input of type :mimetype:`multipart/form-data` (for file uploads).

+.. function:: parse_qs(qs, keep_blank_values=False, strict_parsing=False, encoding='utf-8', errors='replace', max_num_fields=None, separator='&')
Parse a query string given as a string argument (data of type
:mimetype:`application/x-www-form-urlencoded`). Data are returned as a
read. If set, then throws a :exc:`ValueError` if there are more than
*max_num_fields* fields read.
+ The optional argument *separator* is the symbol to use for separating the

+
Use the :func:`urllib.parse.urlencode` function (with the ``doseq``
parameter set to ``True``) to convert such dictionaries into query
strings.
.. versionchanged:: 3.7.2
Added *max_num_fields* parameter.
+ .. versionchanged:: 3.7.10
+ Added *separator* parameter with the default value of ``&``. Python
+ versions earlier than Python 3.7.10 allowed using both ``;`` and ``&`` as

+ separator key, with ``&`` as the default separator.

+Notable changes in Python 3.6.13
+================================
+
+Earlier Python versions allowed using both ``;`` and ``&`` as
+query parameter separators in :func:`urllib.parse.parse_qs` and
+:func:`urllib.parse.parse_qsl`. Due to security concerns, and to conform with
+newer W3C recommendations, this has been changed to allow only a single
+separator key, with ``&`` as the default. This change also affects
+:func:`cgi.parse` and :func:`cgi.parse_multipart` as they use the affected
+functions internally. For more details, please see their respective
+documentation.
