If you got that from your server like in the session below... $ cat first.py #!/usr/bin/env python import sys import cgi import psycopg2 print "Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n" print '<html>' print '<head>' print '<title>Hello Word - First CGI Program</title>' print '</head>' print '<body>' print '<h2>Hello Word! This is my first CGI program</h2>' print "<p>"+ sys.version + "</p>" print 'First name: <input type="text" name="fname"><br>' print '</body>' print '</html>' $ curl http://myhost/somewhere/first.py <html> <head> <title>Hello Word - First CGI Program</title> </head> <body> <h2>Hello Word! This is my first CGI program</h2> <p>2.7.6 (default, Jun 22 2015, 17:58:13) [GCC 4.8.2]</p> First name: <input type="text" name="fname"><br> </body> </html> ... the following should also work: $ cat second.py #!/usr/bin/env python import sys import cgi import psycopg2 print """Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n <html> <head> <title>Hello Word - First CGI Program</title> </head> <body> <h2>Hello Word! This is my first CGI program</h2> <p>{version}</p> First name: <input type="text" name="fname"><br> </body> </html> """.format(version=sys.version) $ curl http://myhost/somewhere/second.py <html> <head> <title>Hello Word - First CGI Program</title> </head> <body> <h2>Hello Word! This is my first CGI program</h2> <p>2.7.6 (default, Jun 22 2015, 17:58:13) [GCC 4.8.2]</p> First name: <input type="text" name="fname"><br> </body> </html> If it does you can start looking for the actual problem. I don't expect it to have anything to do with your choice of quoting characters, as long as you write legal Python 2. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
