Re: dynamically creating html code with python...

Hi,

Thanks for your patience.

I got the text displayed in the web browser with the following code:

[CODE]
f=StringIO.StringIO()
f.write('<html><head><title>data analysis site</title></head><body>')
f.write("<p>This is a trial test</p>")
f.write("</body></html>")

print "Content-type: text/html\n"
print f.getvalue()
f.close()
[/CODE]

Now I am trying to put both the image and the text together, but the following lines do not create the text with the chart that I expected.

[CODE]
f=StringIO.StringIO()
f.write('<html><head><title>data analysis site</title></head><body>')
f.write("<p>This is a trial test</p>")
f.write(urllib.urlopen("http://localhost/myLibs/ChartLib.py",urllib.urlencode(TheData)))
f.write("</body></html>")

print "Content-type: text/html\n"
print f.getvalue()
f.close()
[/CODE]

I am wondering if urllib.urlopen is the command I need to revise.

Thanks for the pointers as well. I will look into them.
