hi all: I'm a python user in my day job. Now I want to take on a personal pet project which will involve the creation of a website on my home server. I'll want to keep track of users through user accounts and logins, allow them to upload information to a database (maybe mySQL or SqLite), and in the future allow upload of GPS tracklogs and subsequent presentation of those tracklogs on a graphical map image).
I can do all of the above today with the Leonardo project on SF, but it's written in PHP, in which I am a relative neophyte, though I use it to drive my own dynamic website using a mySQL database. (see http://midtoad.homelinux.org/midwinter.ca/Poetry/index.php). I would like to take a stab at doing this in Python instead of PHP, but I'd like to hear from people who are familiar with both, or who have a good understanding of web application toolkits in Python. Which is likely to be the least painful route? I'm already using Snakelets for a private internet blog, and would use this if there were a database access module available. I don't want to hear anything about Zope - it's way too complex for my needs or desires. Other than that, fire away! thanks, -- Stewart Midwinter [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: midtoad -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
