I'm late to the party here but my sense is that you'll be best off just
moving everything over. You mentioned that it's a content site with not a
lot of traffic any a moderate amount of content. Sounds to me like you would
have a relatively easy time moving it over than trying to cobble together

I had another idea which is a simplification on my first one : an
action acting like a proxy on the php server.
I just wrote a little POC that seems to work. Here are the few lines
to put in a controller:
import urllib
def make_get_stuff(an_url):
def get_stuff():
stuff=urllib.urlopen

Or move
This is very interesting and could make me save (or waste) a lot of
time : I have to move a website from PHP to web2py. The website is
small and not really dynamic : the content is in tables and so but the
site will be extended (in web2py) and can be see as a static website

All you need is this this (except for windows) in a model (php.py?):
from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
import sys, os, threading
def runphp(source):
PHP_BIN = '/usr/bin/php'
PHP_ARGS = ['-q']
PHP_IN_SHELL = True
php = Popen([PHP_BIN,] + PHP_ARGS, shell=PHP_IN_S
