Hi Tony, > I want to use embedded python in an html page.
I assume you mean you want to embed python code in amongst your HTML and have it executed at the server in the same way as ASP? There is a system available called PSP - Python Server Pages which allows this but be aware that because of Python's indentation rules its more complex that it might seem. Its usually easier to embed HTML into your Python code as a CGI script > However, I dont want to force the user to have python installed for > the page to work. Thats OK, most web frameworks work by having the server execute the code. Any client side scripting must be done in JavaScript if you want to have any chance of browser compatibility. > Is there any way to make the embedded python code be executed by the > server? > I'm hoping ti use python as an alternative to vbscript and jaava VBScript and Java are often used client side - especially where you canbe sure the browwer is IE, however with ASP and JSP both can be used server side too. It depends on how you are using them whether you can replace with Python. As a general guide I'd recommend using CGI for server side python, serving up HTML pages with embedded JavaScript where you really need client side scripting.
