 or http://skulpt.org or an old version of pypy with the JS back-end
(no longer maintained)

 ... but there's another way - actually several.  i documented them
all here:

 http://wiki.python.org/moin/WebBrowserProgramming

 solutions include appcelerator, pxpcomext and so on.  appcelerator
comprises, as best i can make out, some simple "glue" logic which
connects silverlight/moonlight to DOM access functions via .NET (and
from there to languages such as python or ruby, through IronRuby and
IronPython)

 all pretty fucking horrendous, to be honest, and non-portable, making
pyjs and skulpt the infinitely better choices for cross-platform /
cross-browser interoperability.  skulpt doesn't come with any UI
widgets (not in JS nor in python) but pyjamas does.

 it entirely depends what you want to do.
