Hi
Ok, that better much more info ;-)
Really you should create model objects which representing
chapters, verses and parallel translation of each verse, along
with appropriate metadata or references that will allow you to find
the
appropriate translation.
Whilst you example might have worked in dev (thats because dev doesn't
enforce transaction/request limits)
you really have no chance of getting this application to scale.
There is another way, (but gae is really designed for what I described
earlier)
You could preparse all the chapters and verses in to the dictionaries
as you are currently doing
offline, (ie not even under the dev server) then write those
dictionaries as strings to files so that the output is something like
as follows
for instance. file mybook.py contains the following
book = {'chapter1': {'verse1':'some text'}}
(I have left out lots of data ;-)
Then in your code you could import mybook e.g.
import mybook
mybook.book['chapter1']['verse1']
But really you should learn all about models ;-)
See ya
T
Then you could import the module
