You can make the code easier to read by using single quotes to quote
strings with double quotes inside:
print >> htmlFile, ('<div id="track' + unicode(1) +
'" style="width: 200px; height:18px;">')
Or even better:
print >> htmlFile, (u'<div id="track%s" '
u'style="width: 200px; height:18px;">') % unicode(1)
The unicode(1) confuses me -- you are converting an integer to its
string representation in unicode (do you know that?), not picking a
particular character.
print >> htmlFile, (u'<div id="track%d" style="width: 200px; '
u'height:18px;">') % (1,)
And if you don't mean to be writing unicode, you could use:
print >> htmlFile, ('<div id="track%d" style="width: 200px; '
'height:18px;">') % (1,)
