You're not going to get anywhere without learning (x)html and css IMHO. Even using a "graphical" html editor like Dreamweaver requires having a good enough (IOW : being able to do it all by hand) knowledge of these languages.

Well, to be honest I do know rudimentary HTML and have been playing with CSS by hand --- the only HTML editor I have is a public domain one called Taco. I can put together the basic template for the website, and use CSS to keep tuning the look and feel until it was right.

I have Apache/MySQL already running on my Mac, a fairly fast broadband connection with a static IP address and a vanity domain to point at the server. So I could serve it all from home.

Depends on what your "site" is doing.

There are all *sorts* of things I would like it to do, but am not dogmatic about any of them. For example, having various people being able to login to it securely to shuttle files between ourselves would be useful. As would webmail access. And various "robot" functionality...

The exercise is more to see what Python can do to help me develop websites and get used to some sort of proper development framework, rather than Apple iWeb which is superficially attractive but fundamentally crippled and produces unreadable HTML.

There are quite a couple other (and more recent) "html generator" packages. You may want to have a look at brevé:

Thanks. I'll take a look.
