pyWeb Description

Easy yet powerful active website programming using Python over CGI pyWeb is a simple, understandable framework for server-side web page generation.Yes, there are already millions of python DHTML frameworks around the place, but pyWeb has a number of advantages which can make your web server programming much easier.Also, pyWeb can be more easily deployed on budget commercial web hosts than a lot of the other alternatives.Rather than working like other DHTML systems (where you embed code within raw HTML text), pyWeb places its emphasis on the program code, and gives you the option of adding HTML code only if you want to.Within the pyWeb class framework, you will be able to find a feature-rich set of classes which will allow you to easily control every aspect of the HTTP request/response cycle, while allowing your code to remain simple and coherent. Here are some key features of "pyWeb": · Runs under Apache CGI or FastCGI environment · Platform-independent · Runs happily under Python 1.5.2 or later · Powerful web templating and PHP-like preprocessing · Easy to install and deploy on public web hosts (even those cheap'n'nasty ones that give you CGI, huge disk/traffic quotas and virtually everything for $7.95 a month, but only provide python 1.5.2 with *no* MySQL interface module). · Does not require root access, or access to Apache configuration. Just put the files into any directory where CGI scripts can run. Period. · Easy to separate content from presentation · Very fast to learn · Presents a coherent and intuitive object hierarchy for controlling all aspects of web page generation · Gives the simplest possible access to cookies (read and write) · Automatic storage and retrieval of cryptographically-secure, persistent data on client browser · Highly extensible
