Hi, There are a few modules to generate HTML from Python : there is a list at http://wiki.python.org/moin/Templating, section HTML Generation packages With HTMLTags, your example would be coded like this : from HTMLTags import * table = TABLE(border=1,width=987) table <= TR(Sum([TD(header) for header in col_headers])) for result in data_list: table <= TR(Sum([TD(value) for value in result])) print table The operator <= means "add child" in the DOM tree structure, it avoids having to nest tags with brackets - Pierre -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
