First, here's a sample test program:

class MyRequestHandler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler, object):

MyWebServer instance
         self.send_response(200)
         self.send_header('Content-type',    'text/html')
         self.end_headers()
         self.wfile.write("thanks for trying, but I'd like to get at
self.foo and self.bar")
         return

class MyWebServer(object):
     def __init__(self):
         self.foo = "foo"  # these are what I want to access from inside
do_GET
         self.bar = "bar"
         self.httpd = HTTPServer(('127.0.0.1', 8000), MyRequestHandler)
         sa = self.httpd.socket.getsockname()
         print "Serving HTTP on", sa[0], "port", sa[1], "..."

     def runIt(self):
         self.httpd.serve_forever()

server = MyWebServer()
server.runIt()

</code>

I want to access the foo and bar variables from do_GET, but I can't
figure out how. I suppose this is something to do with new-style vs.
old-style classes, but I lost for a solution.

It'd have been good to tell us that this was on Python 2.7

Is MyWebServer class intended to have exactly one instance?  If so, you
could save the instance as a class attribute, and trivially access it
from outside the class.

If it might have more than one instance, then we'd need to know more
about the class BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer,  From a quick glance at the
docs, it looks like you get an attribute called server.  So inside the
do_GET() method, you should be able to access   self.server.foo   and
self.server.bar

See http://docs.python.org/2/library/basehttpserver.html

That doesn't work. Maybe you mean something that I'm missing?
