I believe mod_python does support this style of programming: http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/python/2004/02/26/python_server_pages.html Although I've not tried it, and some of the links google suggested were quite dead. Generally I think embedding bits of code in a tag soup is generally regarded as a pretty poor way of building anything other than the most trivial applications. I suggest you take a look at Django: http://www.djangoproject.com/ This gives you everything you'd get with the page-embedded style, but gives allows you to do Real Programming too.
