This did it! Thanks a lot. I think I will write the style stuff into a .css file in the next few days but until then I'm just working on get my program to work...

hex(dummy)[2:] - issue...
Hi there, I need some advice :-) I'm using hex(dummy)[2:] to represent a color in hexadecimal format for the bgcolor in an html file. dummy is the color value in RGB of course... Now, if there's an R, G or B value of zero, this command only prints one single 0 instead of two. What's wrong with the code?

What's wrong with the code? hex() returns '0x' followed by no more digits than are necessary: hex(0xFF) '0xff' hex(0xF) '0xf' Try %02X instead (it'll pad with leading zeros up to a width of 2): %02X % 0xFF 'FF' %02X % 0xF '0F' -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
