Have you looked into the fine tutorial, yet? Most probably your Python
installation already includes it, but it's also available online at
http://www.python.org/doc/current/tut/tut.html

I'd stop wondering and just try it out ;-)

Argh. Yes, it's possible to mix Python and HTML and almost everybody
who is into the Web thing with Python has probably done it himself. So
there are tons of possibilities out there. Python is very well suited
for web application development. 

Useful URLs, once you've learnt Python basics:
