I0m a python newbie with PHP background. I've tried to make a web app
from one of my python scripts (which I haven't done before) and I
ended up with:

<?php
echo shell_exec("python foobar.py");
?>
which works really nice :-D

For some reason I can't find no "quick and dirty python web
programming tutorial for PHP programmers" on google. :-D I don't need
a general python tutorial, I just need a tutorial on how to make a
hello world server side script with python. Any suggestions?

Try googling mod_wsgi. While "real" python web-programming is usually done a bit different (django, turbogears, pylons and lots of others I forgot), I think it comes close to what a PHP-programmer would expect how a webapp begins.

It boils down to a python-file saying


def application(environ, start_response):
    status = '200 OK'
    output = 'Hello World!'

    response_headers = [('Content-type', 'text/plain'),
                        ('Content-Length', str(len(output)))]
    start_response(status, response_headers)

    return [output]


Well, I did the googling - here you have a starter:


http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/

See the configuration-section.

HTH,
