Hello, Thomas Schilz has put together two packages, that is, MozPHP and MozPython, that let you execute scripts in Mozilla without requiring a built-in loopback HTTP server.
Thomas writes: MozPHP is a Mozilla PHP integration package. With MozPHP you can execute PHP scripts in Mozilla directly without the need for a local HTTP server. Currently the integration is one way, i.e. it is not possible to access Mozilla internals from PHP scripts. This may change in the future but there are no concrete plans for this. On MozPython Thomas writes: MozPython embeds the Python interpreter in Mozilla. With MozPython you can execute Python scripts in Mozilla. Output sent to sys.stdout by a script is displayed in Mozilla's browser window, where it is interpreted as HTML. If you have written a Web application with Python CGI scripts you can now have your application be executed offline running the same scripts in Mozilla. In this respect MozPython is similar to MozPHP. But with MozPython you can do more. If you have PyXPCOM installed on your system you can access Mozilla internals from your Python scripts. Thomas licensed both packages under the GNU General Public License.
