Hi James, Thanks for response. Maybe I did not make my question clear. I never tried python web programing before, so I want to start from CGI. I read something about web framework like django, but seems it's a little bit complicated. my task is actually very simple: get search string from input, and then search database, print search result. I thought CGI should be good enough to do this. I don't have any idea about how to organize those cgi codes, so what I'm asking is: 1. do I have to have each single file for each hyper-link? Can I put them together? how? 2. how can I pass a db_cursor to another file? can I use db_cursor as a parameter? Thanks again! Hans -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
