It's almost certainly not what you want. I'm not familiar with web2py, so I can't comment on that. Django is sort of the "killer app" these days in the python web world. That's not to say that it's necessarily the best, but at least it's well documented, and has a thriving user community of people who can help you. There's also a lot of add-on software available for it. The basic things you get from django are: 1) A built-in ORM (Object Relational Mapper) layer. This is the thing which lets you ignore all the horrible details of how your underlying database works and just deal with Python objects. 2) A structure for parsing incoming HTTP requests, and calling the right bit of your code to handle each request. 3) A template language, to simplify the generation of your HTML pages. There are others besides the three you mentioned. You might want to start at http://wiki.python.org/moin/WebFrameworks to explore the possibilities. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
