Hello: I came across webware when researching reportlab and the
functionality of serving a pdf file on the fly.
I am referencing the following URL:

Although I'm sure it's quite practical to do as you have started to do, I usually do my ReportLab PDF generation by linking to a straight CGI script, rather than going through WebKit. That allows me to test it from a command line more easily.
Actually, it had not occurred to me to write the PDF straight from a WebKit servlet.
ReportLab is an incredible package. It's too bad that HTML sucks so badly at printed out. I can generate glorious reports that display beautifully in a browser, even cross-platform, but I can't get enough control over printing. With just a few tweaks to HTML and CSS, it could be the ultimate report generation tool.
sys.path.append('/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/Webware')
sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages')
Why do you have both /usr/local/lib/python2.3 and /usr/lib/python2.3? Doesn't that just result in confusion? "site-packages" is automatically added to your Python path, but only one of the two.
