I believe you need to call end_headers() before attempting to send any 
data.  end_headers() writes a blank line which is followed by the data.  I 
recommend Frederik Lundh's book "Python Standard Library" from O'Reilly, it 
has good clear examples and list lists at US$29.95 unlike the bloated $50 
books that line the shelves.
