Yes, you need something that maps an HTTP-Request
to a method call.

I use quixote[1] because it is small and simple.
I even don't use the form library of quixote.
If you have more logic than HTML, it is better
to use python syntax:

def foo(request):
    ret=[]
    ret.append(header())
    ret.append(....)
    ret.append(footer())
    return ''.join(ret)
