That's because while is a loop too ;-)

(again in Google mode ;-)
Did you mean:
from string import split
lines=string.split(str(container.my_script.read()),'\n')
for line in lines:
   if line.startswith('##'):
     print line[0:2]
     print '<br>'
print '# ENDE of bindings'
return printed

cheers,
