I don't know if one exists that merely takes a static page and spits
it out via HTTP, but if you want a really great application server
that will handle unbelievably complicated things, check out Zope
at www.zope.org.

Short summary: Everything's an object in a database (there's no
actual files, directories, etc) so you get to take advantage of
inheritence-like behavior (it's not QUITE the same thing; they
call it acquisition), it'll do user authentication, talk to relational
databases for you, and all sorts of yummy stuff.

Sorry for the shameless plug,
