This form takes a name and a message as its input and uses Prowl [1] and Prowlpy [2] to send the message to my iPhone.

You'll find an active version of the form over here.

#if a message and username have been found, the form was filled so import the Prowl library and send the message
if msg!="your message" and msg!="" and usr!="your name" and usr!="":
    import prowlpy
