Hi, I don't know if what I'm about to ask has already been requested, or if this is the right list, but here I go: I have been using mod_python for about 3 weeks now, and have come up with a few things that I'd like to see added into the util module (I'm assuming this might be the right place for them). 1. a refresh() sibling to the redirect() function; I use the Refresh header quite often in my applications. 2. html(encode|decode) for translating all defined entity characters; currently pythons default cgi.escape only translates "&", "<" and ">", and xml.sax.saxutils.escape is both silly if you're not using sax for anything else, and not convenient as you have to give it the translation table. Also a simple method to unescape these is quite useful aswell. I've thought of other things aswell, but I can't remember what they were right now :-) This is a great project, keep up the good work. Thanks, Sean
