Just generating html code is simple, but it does become a bit messy over time. Check out that link in my previous e-mail to a list of python templating engines. Choose one and try it. No I cannot provide any example code. I haven't used any of these systems; I'm just googling for you. Most of them come with examples anyway. Check out, among others: http://www.cheetahtemplate.org/docs/users_guide_html/ And actually this one uses cheetah to do static pages (not a full-blown web app): http://www.ivy.fr/tahchee/ I do recommend you at least take a look at Django. It may be overkill for your needs. It does contain a templating engine, but it also contains a whole lot more useful things for doing web-based applications. Here's the link in case you missed it: http://wiki.python.org/moin/Templating -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
