Python doesn't normally run in a web browser. There's two easy options: 1) Use very simple web hosting that lets people download scripts and run them. Anything can do this, but all you gain is that they don't have to keep a collection of scripts / EXEs on their hard drives. 2) Run the Python scripts on the web server. I don't know whether this is even possible in your situation; it would turn them into quite different tools. I have no experience with it, but Jython can make applets. Again, though, these would be quite different tools from simple Python scripts. Web browsers aren't generally happy for in-browser scripts to, for instance, read and write files on the user's hard drive. I think you're ultimately going to need to keep on distributing those scripts. But if you get your users to install a Python interpreter, they need only install it once and then you can distribute all your scripts in .py format rather than py2exeing them all.
