best way to pass options to django views?

I have a option section in my webpage just display the names of some machines

doing this tutorial I was able to get all the lines that appear in the "option" tag of my html.

http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/tryit.asp?filename=tryjsref_select_options

and I can get a big string that I can separate by comas.

I was going to put that big long string as the last part of the url and use it with a get method such:

url:   mywebsite/myapp/?options=txt

def profile_page(request):

    options = request.GET.get("options", "")

    #here parse the options string

    

is this something recommended? or is a better smarter way?

thanks =)
