Re: Web framework for static pages
Hi "DL Neil". I find your argumentation combative and provoking. I have an ex that has made my life difficult for the last 6 years, blocking me from seeing my kids, she acts in a similar way. I don't have the time, energy or the will to bring more of that stuff into my life, so I won't reply to this type of email. -Morten Blogging at http://blogologue.com Tweeting at https://twitter.com/blogologue On Instagram https://instagram.com/morphexx ons. 14. aug. 2019, 01.27 skrev DL Neil : > On 13/08/19 10:54 PM, Morten W.

Re: Web framework for static pages
Hi Joel. I don't disagree with what you're saying, but is there a documented way of making Django produce a neat set of static pages? It would be nice to use a web application framework to create pages, because it would after that be easy to add a little bit of logic if a customer wants it. A contact form, an order form, etc. Zope/Plone has its own set of features and applications I know well, if a customer wants a dynamic website with a lot of logic (dynamic pages). -Morten Blogging at http://blogologue.com Tweeting at https://twitter.com/blogologue On Instagram https://instagram.com/morphexx tir. 13. aug. 2019, 21.08 skrev Joel Goldstick : > On Tue, Aug 13, 2019 at 2:46 PM DL Neil > wrote: > > > > On 14/08/19 2:26 AM, Grant Edwards wrote: > > > On 2019-08-13, Jon Ribbens via Python-list > wrote: > > > > > >> If it's really that small then it sounds like what you are looking for > > >> is known as a "text editor". > > > > > > Bah.

I'm not sure why you think that using XML is in any way "pure" or "perfect", nor why not using XML means your input is "malformed". Just use HTML 5, and indeed you should check your code to ensure it is pure, perfect and well-formed. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Web framework for static pages
Ok. Isn't it a bit splitting of hairs to talk about static site generators and their templates? Wouldn't a static site generator that can create a good, usable website with little input be desirable? I could pick and choose CSS templates, HTML templates and write some of my own, but that takes quite a bit of time. Yes, my fixation on XML HTML might be a bit purist or perfectionist, but isn't it strange that there isn't a DTD for XML HTML 5?

I was hoping to avoid testing a lot of different systems, spending time there. So that's why I'm asking here. I don't need a guide to create a website, maybe a refresher on some topics. Ideally I'd want a static site generator that makes it easy and quick to create a website which is pretty, accessible, works across browsers and standards compliant and doesn't freeze the browser on a low-end phone.

Re: Web framework for static pages
Yes. Well, one of the ideas of the web is being able to create a website using simple tools like that. And I like that idea. And for one site, either small or very specialized and well-funded, that would be an OK choice. However, I want to offer customers websites that cover their needs, without costing too much. Also, apart from taking a lot of time, manually changing different websites using a text editor is tedious and error-prone. -Morten Blogging at http://blogologue.com Tweeting at https://twitter.com/blogologue On Instagram https://instagram.com/morphexx tir. 13. aug. 2019, 02.17 skrev Jon Ribbens via Python-list < python-list@python.org>: > On 2019-08-12, Morten W.

I have used: https://github.com/Frozen-Flask/Frozen-Flask It's pretty simple. Develop with flask and then "freeze" it. I am looking forward to further answers.

Web framework for static pages
Hi. After a long break, I'm starting to work with web development again, in my company Nidelven IT. http://www.nidelven-it.no I've used Zope and Plone since the early days, as well as other web systems / frameworks, Python-based, some PHP, Java etc. However, I would like to add another tool to my toolbox, another weapon to the arsenal.. Some customers would want static pages, and that's something I want to offer. What frameworks are there for generating static web pages in Python? What are the features of each? Thanks, Morten -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
