PS: Just wanted to add that HTMLGen works very well and outputs html that wxHtmlEasyPrinting and my email client have not problem reading (I output student grades, missing assignments, ... in tables). The one gitch is they do not have any installation program (that I've seen) for windows. Regards

Thanks a bunch, I'm currently playing with HTMLGen (great but not in Python distrib ...) and it look very good - Yet your code example looks simple enough for me to look at that alternative. Thomas Guettler wrote: > Am Thu, 09 Jun 2005 12:43:19 + schrieb Philippe C. Martin: > >> Hi, >>

Stan (part of nevow, which is part of twisted) is a nice python syntax for building HTML - I like the use of () and [] to separate attributes from sub-elements. For example: class Greeter(rend.Page): def greet(self, context, data): return random.choice(["Hello", "Greetings", "Hi"]), "

Here are a couple of pointers. I agree with Michele that it would be nice to have some kind of standardization. Maybe this would be worth a post to the Web-SIG ? - I posted a 70-line recipe on the Python Cookbook, a sort of poor man's HTMLGen called HTMLTags http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Coo
