Difference between plain print, and print with format string?

I noticed that in my python cgi script, the following comes up in
Netscape 4.7 as plain text:
--------------------
def htmlHeader():
return "Content-type: text/html\n"
...
print htmlHeader()
print <html tags and stuff here...>
----------------------
This works in IE 5.5, but just dumps the plain html in Netscape 4.7.
Choosing View | Page Info shows the "File MIME Type", according to
Netscape, as "text/plain". Changing the line above to the following
fixes the Netscape issue:
print "%s" % htmlHeader()
So, what's going on here? What's the difference?
Thanks,
Chris
