If `print` were a function, this would be easy: just provide a replacement into the dictionary you pass to the script. But print is a statement, and this becomes a bit harder. If your web server only processes a single request at a time, you can replace sys.stdout (and perhaps sys.stderr) with a suitable object having a write() function: a true open file, or a StringIO instance, or even a custom object that collects "printed" lines into a list. If your web server is multithreaded (or you use some other way to process many simultaneous requests) you have to be more careful - remember that sys.stdout is global, you must find a way to distinguish between output from different processes all going into the same collector. -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
