I'm a self taught high school students trying to make a quote of the day
website.
Essentially what I'm trying to do is assign the day of the month equal to a
quote that I have selected. The code runs just fine. I'll post it on the
bottom.
Anyway, the disconnect that I'm getting is inputting the application that I
have written in Python to the a html template. I know that you need to have
a controller, view and model files all to display the application
correctly. I have absolutely no idea how to do this.
Thank you so much for your time.
Code:
