If the caret is pointing to "host", then the syntax error isn't discovered until that point. That means the actual syntax error occurs before that point, probably on the previous line. How long have you been doing web development with Python? Six months? A year? You're not a beginner any more. If you can't solve syntax errors by yourself by now, it's probably time to give up and find a job more suited to your skills. -- Steven -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
