You are trying to mix HTML and the output of a Python script. That 
won't work.
You'll have to use SSI (server side includes) to do this. With SSI you 
could run a script from within a HTML page and print the output of the 
script in that page.
Another solution: use a CGI-script and let that script generate the 
whole HTML page.
Perhaps this would help to get you starting:
