<pre>Thank you,
Yes I have other scripts working fine.
The OS is WXP and the server is the python's CGIHTTPserver (for an intranet use only)

Can you tell us a bit more about the set up?
What OS? What web server?
Can you get any other python CGI scripts running correctly?

The IDE environment is very different to a web server environment.
You should only treat IDLE as a first approximation when
developing Web scripts. You can use the OS prompt for a slightly
better approximation provided you set some environment variables
first, but ultimately you need to test on the web server you will
be using.
