Python Webpages

[Tom Chance]

Sorry if I'm coming in at a tangent to this conversation, or repeating 
something that's been said before, but I've been using Perl and the 
HTML::Template module for ages now and it seems to me to be the natural 
way to do things. You basically create a series of HTML templates, and 
put fake HTML tags into them like:

<TMPL_VAR NAME=TITLE>

And then in your perl scripts you call a new HTML::Template object, give 
  it the values to put into all of the fake HTML tags, and tell 
HTML::Template to print out the page, like so:

use HTML::Template;
my $template = HTML::Template->new(filename => 'template.html');
$template->param(TITLE => 'Hello there!');
print $template->output();

This lets you keep the HTML seperate from the logic of the script 
(something which I find preferable to PHP's system, especially if the 
script is vey complicated), which is handy both if you have seperate 
people doing the HTML and the Perl code, and if like me you don't want 
to be fiddling around with HTML every time you want to edit the logic of 
the script. It lends to very neatly laid out HTML and Perl. Perhaps 
Python merely needs an equivalent of this?
