somewhere else.

Hi there,
I've got a function that returns a dictionary, I need to loop and
return 1000 dictionaries and append them to a list, but the thing is
that when I do the list.append(funtThatReturnsDict()) the resulting
only ever has 1 dictionary attached to it, even after running the
append function 100

I'm running a python cgi script on a frontend web server and I want it

How do I find the line number?
Thanks for any

Does anyone know how to do this? I can't seem to make it work.
I'm using:

c['data'] = "unamepwordwhatever"
c.expires = time.time() + 300

This doesn't seem to work, so I'm assuming isn't the correct way to
set an expiry data? Anyone able to help me out here?
