I'm putting together a small site using Python and cgi. (I'm pretty new to this, but I've worked a little with JSP/servlets/Java before.)
Almost all pages on the site will share some common (and static) html, however, they'll also have dynamic aspects. I'm guessing that the common way to build sites like this is to have every page (which contains active content) be generated by a cgi script, but also have some text files hanging around containing incomplete html fragments which you read and paste-in as-needed (I'm thinking: header.html.txt, footer.html.txt, and so on). Is that how it's usually done? If not, what *is* the usual way of handling this?
