Just out of curiosity, why did you want to use a browser for the
interface on a local-only game? Pygame is excellent for this sort of
thing, and possibly much easier to use and write. Don't get me wrong,
the browser idea works well for lots of things, but you don't want to
miss out on other options.

  Cheers,
  Tim
