Since he asked about how to use python for web purposes, one could expect
that he doesn't know what tools are needed to make python one of the best
web programming languages. Zope, Quixote, Cheetah and WebWare, Twisted
with Woven or Nevow (etc.) are all well known products in the python
community.

Sorry, I disagree. As a business decision, it does border on stupidity.
Why contemplate doing something with Python that would be tedious and
difficult at best when PHP can do this task easily and quickly??? From a
business (read practical point of view) it's stupid. From a religious (Mac
fanatic like point of view), it makes sense.

Actually it seems you meant that a web solution using python would have
been both difficult and tedious...
