I can't argue ;-) I'm just looking for informed suggestions on a subject I
know nothing about.
I only pointed out a personal preference i.e. I don't like to mix app logic
and html layout in the same page, as can be seen in many pages with PHP.
On reflection, a better way to have written the sentence would have been
"...will avoid using PSP, Cheetah etc. in ways which integrate app logic
within HTML pages." =)
To get back on track with my original post, here's part of what I wrote:
"At the moment I'm considering using either Webware or Slither [snip]"
"So far though, I have not found any independant info on Slither (and
nothing at all on Slither with mod_snake) [snip]"
"What I would be most appreciative of, is your helpful suggestions on how
to start in Python Web app development and on relevant books."
That last quote above is the most important. I haven't fixed my sights on
any particular Python related web app server/components/frameworks/RAD
tools and am seeking Python scholars' help on how to proceed.
Although it is nice to be told about this or that web app related project,
I'm not in a position to know if it's better or worse than the
alternatives. I'd really appreciate hearing (relatively) unbiased
comparisons between projects and perhaps being given a slight push towards
one.
Thanks for your input.
Cheers,
Scrumpy :)
