You are better off using one of the Python web frameworks such as Django, Pylons or TurboGears.

The real question is whether mod_python is even worth the trouble these days given that better options exist. ;-) Graham > Best of luck, > Tim > > On Fri, Mar 27, 2009 at 5:48 PM, Graham Dumpleton > <graham.dumpleton at gmail.com> wrote: >> >> 2009/3/28 Tim Valenta <tonightslastsong at gmail.com>: >> >> Mostly irrelevant.
