Python FAQ: Webdev

All, This may be a link of interest to the list. The site "Fuzzy Notepad" recently wrote an article absolutely, absolutely slating PHP [*]. So the question was asked: "I only know PHP. How do I write a Web application in Python? "This is a deeply complex question. I could easily fill a book on

If you are thinking about diving into PHP, I suggest you read this first: http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2006/02/17/PHP It's five years old, but it contains a lot of links to pro- and anti- PHP rants, which you should consider. (Consider also that there's no good Unicode support inside
