Hi,
I'm just starting to get my feet wet with Python. I'm trying to write
a CGI script to create an XML document using input from a web form.
The created document would be a MODS record[1], so I already have a
Schema for it. I think I could make it work if I just feed the input
into a long strin
So, as a newbie, I see this thread and I check out the PEP and I see
that for future compatibility we should use sys.stdin.readline(). So
I import sys to see how it works. Of course, sys.stdin.readline('type
anything: ') doesn't work in quite the same way as raw_input('type
anything: ') does. Th
how about
manyones = [ 1 for x in range(96) ]

Hello all,
I'm trying to modify the sys.path in my cgi scripts to import modules
that I've installed in my home directory. The top of the script reads
as follows:
#!/usr/local/bin/python
import cgi, sys
sys.path.append('/net/u/16/g/gsf/lib/python2.4/site-packages')
from ElementTree import Elem
Sorry, addendum to that post. The line
from ElementTree import Element, SubElement, tostring
should read
from elementtree.ElementTree import Element, SubElement, tostring
but that still doesn't work.

e libs are simply not accessible.
This situation is particular to my web hosting service, so it may not
apply to others who are running python cgi scripts and importing
modules.

Greetings,
I'm setting up a search for an online catalog. It works right now by
passing the cgi search query to the command-line swish-e via os.popen.
I'll do it via a direct interface as soon as I figure out how to do
that with swig or the swishe module. In the meantime, I'm trying to
sanitize

Hi William,
The short answer is go with the default until you run into something
you can't do without 2.4.
For the skinny on all the changes you'll want to check out
http://python.org/doc/2.4/whatsnew/whatsnew24.html . That document
lays it out about as well as can be done. If you find somethin

In PyGreSQL/pgdb it's cursor.execute(query[, params]) but it means

I've improved a lot by just reading this list and following along with
the successes and failures (always temporary, I hope) of others.

Uh oh, looks like you're begging for an editor war.
That said, I'm in the vim camp. It can do everything you specified

This is great news. And the thread on comp.lang.python is awesome.
The eff-bot and the martelli-bot and everyone's just talking about how
great it would be to have it in the core, and, then, it just ...

I have an issue with the tempfile module that I can't figure out.
Snippet of relevant script looks like so:

That works! Thanks, Kent. If I understand flush (looking at [1]), I
got no output because the data for the stream wasn't written to the
file befo
I'm trying to create a master dictionary in aspell, and I can do so
with the following:
