Hi Diez,

and thanks for yout help. In fact I already found it but never managed 
to get it work because the static doc says :

from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
import static
make_server('localhost', 9999, static.Cling('/var/www')).serve_forever()

and inside J.Gregorio's tutorial it is:

from wsgiref.simple_server import WSGIServer, WSGIRequestHandler
httpd = WSGIServer(('localhost', 8080), WSGIRequestHandler)
httpd.set_app(urls.urls)

It does not use 'make_server()' so how can I adapt it ?

I finally managed to work with static files with a little hack, but it's 
ugly because I'm reading each static file per request.

Kib.
