Ugh, this requires starting up python on each request.

What I did on the desktop was to use a modified dibler.py (from the spambayes 
project). I 
combined that with SimpleTAL.

Then, I use venster to create a simple frame application that uses ATL to embed 
IE as the 
window contents.

You should see the 'test browser' application in venster examples.  I just 
start a dibbler 'http 
server' instance in it's own thread, then tell embedded IE to navigate to the 
local server's 
address and port.

I'm sure there's no problem getting dibbler and SimpleTAL to run on pythonce. 
For the 
embedded IE browser, probably win32gui could do it if the ATL hack works on CE.

Another option is to use the shell to launch IE to your URL. The only problem 
there is 
figuring out when to quit your application. I'm not sure if you'll be able to 
use the process 
handle on CE, I haven't tried it.
