Serverpages is a python script, which emulates MS Active Server pages.
It is developed as small embedded asp server and in-house tool to add
profiling to Mark's python ASP implementation. Just a fraction of MS
ASP model is implemented, but enough to test and analyze a simple
python scripts, and serve simple pages. 

Features
-Standalone web server used to test python ASP scripts. 
-Usable as a integrated web server for a ordinary python application,
-Serverpages can be run in a thread and providing web interface to the
app. 
-Capable of generating completely standalone python scripts, that can
be checked with python debuggers. This way it might be easier to debug
it than with IIS and Mark's python ASP implementation. 
-Thanks to Mod_python same ASP's can be run inside apache - very
incomplete. 
-Limited platform independence, because same scripts can be run on
linux too and without COM. Without COM execution takes only 20% of
time for the same script 
-Checs correctness of ASP (for example if ContentType is set too late,
because the headers are already flushed) 
-Integrated profiler support 
-Verbose request tracking 
-Simple user interface (self hosted by serverpages and accessible with
latest browsers (must support xml and xslt, tested with ie6, phoenix) 
jython is somehow supported and tested with lastest jython 2.2 alpha
