Using python to develop web application

Question

I have been doing some work in python, but that was all for stand alone applications. I\'m curious to know whether any offshoot of python supports web development?

Would

Answer 1

Python can be used for web development, but there isn't a special language extension or anything in the language that will handle all the HTML generation or that works like PHP.

It's pretty much run through some sort of interpreter on a web server (CGI, mod_python, etc.).

I would recommend looking into Python Web Application Frameworks or how to write Python CGI scripts.
