I think thats a bit too likely to interpret stuff in the log messages
as formatting directives.
Two options come to mind:
1. Don't use HTML. Return the logfile as-is with Content-Type:
text/plain. [That way the user can also save it if needed.]
2. Escape the file contents using cgi.escape() and then stick the
escaped contents inside <pre> </pre> tags. That's not as nice,
since saving it is no longer a useful option.
