Thanks for the link. <I would think there would be a generic, Ajax/JavaScript component that you could just drop in to your pages which would accept the user's input, send it to you like a regular web page request and then you return text to be output onto the screen.>
The examples I've seen using XMLHttpRequest() all return static data from some file. I notice in the case of the web console (the one via the link) that the request is going to a php file, where a dynamic response is returned based on the request. (When I try to open the php file, I get a mix of printable and non-printable characters, so I'm not exactly sure what's going on there.) I can't just make the request point to a .py file, can I? I think I also need a new thread fired up for each connected user - they can't all share the same resource.
