Hi Everyone,

I am looking for a way to allow a standalone python process to easily
interactive with a few web pages. It has to be able to easily receive
requests from the web and post data to the web.

I am thinking about implementing a standalone soap server, but I am
not sure which library is good.

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot,
Geoffrey

This seems to be an HTTP client library. It is very interesting, but
is not what I need. I am looking for something that can provide
service to web pages. For example, when a browser requests a web page,
the web page is going to send a few requests to my server. My server
then is going to respond, and the web page takes the response and
format it in human readable form.
