Does the standard python module urllib do what you want? http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-urllib.html
4: Im scetching on a simple python module that implements some of the stuff found in CGI.pm Would that be useful to other Zopers or am I doing somthing already done better by others?
I don't quite understand this question. Zope *IS* a CGI "script". All of the CGI functionality is available. Most of it has higher-level support, so you don't usually need to do much at the primitive CGI level.
You're quite right, but what I really meant was that I'm writing a module that offers shorthands for html formatting which I use when I write external methods. The main advantages with CGI.pm that I'm trying to mimic is that you can keep your html / dtml and the processing script together. I also feel that a lot of: print "<tag name='blablalbla' etc=...'> " + some.content + "</tag>" makes the code real ugly ..so my module allows me to do things like this def form: form = Form("some_action") sel = Select("name") form.add_item(sel) for item in Defs.My_List: sel.add_item(Option(item)) form.add_item(Input("Name", "Type")) form.add_item(Input("Submit", "SUBMIT", [], "OK")) return str(form) If anyone is interested, I can publish it somewhere. -Fredrick -- ========================================== Fredrick Rybarczyk Research Engineer NetLab, Lund University
