subsequently written to the file. How do I save this
<a href=\"http://users.example.com/~" + userName + ">" + lastName + ", "
+ firstName + "</a>
to a variable, then?
aVar = '<a href=\"http://users.example.com/~' + userName + ">" + lastName +
", " + firstName + "</a>"
But IMHO its much easier to use string formatting:
aVar = '<a href="http://users.example.com/~%s>%s,%s</a>' %(
userName,lastName,firstName)
Its also more efficient.
However in practice you don;t need to store it as a variable before writing
it,
you can just write the string directly.
