Graphs etc on web apps can be problematic, but thats true of all web apps regardless of framework. You may need to hunt for some graphing code to suit the framework you choose - or maybe a Java applet. > Have you ever done anything like that, and how did you go about > doing > it?

Any web framework will be better than roilling your own if you are developing more than a few pages and particularly if you want to keep clean separation between your model and the UI aspects. There are a host of Python web frameworks, the most popular nowadays seem to be Django and TurboGears. I favour TG myself but to be honest they all offer much the same features: - a templating language to link HTML and code - A mapping mechanism from url to a python method - an object-database mapper HTH, -- Alan Gauld Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
