It would be useful to actually specifying the context of this fragment 
of code.  Presumably it's running on a web server somewhere, and you're 
expecting the filenames to somehow show up on a browser.  Which OS and 
which version of Python for that server, and what brand and version of 
browser?

Have you considered closing the table, and ending the body of the page?

Have you looked at the result with View->Source in your browser?
