A simple problem that alot fo the examples use is that theres too much at once going on.
none really have the simple "just decend from page and self.writeln() your output. self.request() has the form type enviro. Took me a while to figure it out. But maybe a simple "heres how to do hello world" and next step "lets make a form" etc etc thru the complexities will do the trick. -- Shayne O'Neill http://perth.indymedia.org I know how hard it is for you to put food on your family." ----George W.
