Try this in IDLE: import CGIHTTPServer CGIHTTPServer.test()
This starts serving right away. You can also look at CGIHTTPServer.py in your Python/Lib to see how test() has been implemented. test() starts serving from the current directory (of running python). If you create a folder called cgi-bin and put a testcgi.py, this module executes the .py file and displays the contents in the browser :-) Thanks, --Kartic PS: You can handle query strings accordingly now. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
