Though:
Note: Please stop using TinyHTTPD. [...] when you need a
lightweight HTTP server for actual use, try Boa. This is better
suited even for the purpose for which TinyHTTPD was originally
intended. For a better web server in perl, look at Plexus or
HTTPi.
I suggested (off-list) he look at:
http://docs.python.org/lib/module-CGIHTTPServer.html
and
http://docs.python.org/lib/module-BaseHTTPServer.html
both of which are used quite a bit for development and since the first
of these should be able to execute php as cgi out-of-the-box ... I'm now
trying to persuade him to give up programming it in C :-).
