Usage opinion wanted
Hi group: I hope that you good people here could help me with a decision I am finding hard to make. I am about to develop a MIS type application for a Non for profit organization teaching young children in India. I am trying to use this opportunity to make myself learn python, and if required the whole web based development paradigm using django. I have experience of c++ graphical algorithms development. Now obviously this application would be database based and database manipulation would be the major part. It would be mostly used across desktop computers in the organization running Windows XP. The decision which I am unable to make is that should I use django for this project? My issues are: 1. This application would be run on desktops, so GUI toolkits such as PyQT might suffice. 2. Making good interfaces for web would require additional learning on my part such as HTML, CSS and Javascript, an area in which I have absolutely no expertise, just a very basic idea. So what do you guys suggest? If learning the above things would still give me an edge( in terms of time required for development) over PyQt based interfaces, in terms of automated databse manipulation tools such as the admin interface, I would go for it and it might be a good experience for me. Thanks for reading this slightly incoherent and maybe off-topic mail. All suggestions are welcome and I would be grateful for them.

[Novice]Installing eric4 with python 2.6
Hi, I am fairly new to python. Coming from a world of IDEs, I wanted a fancier one than IDLE. Hence, I downloaded eric4. When I tried to compile it, it asked for PyQt4, which I again downloaded (exe for Windows XP) and installed it. It seems to be properly installed as I can invoke import PyQt4 from IDLE without any complaints. However, when I try to install eric4, I am getting the following error: D:\Python26\eric4-4.2.2apython install.py Sorry, please install PyQt4. Error: Module use of python25.dll conflicts with this version of Python. So, won't eric4 work with python 2.6? I have searched on the net for this, but am unable to find any solution. I am new to python, so please excuse if this has an obvious solution. Thanks. OS: Windows XP SP2. Regards, Saurabh. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
