PyHP is an Apache module which embeds the
Python language inside web pages.
It is inspired by the PHP module to permit quick and easy dynamic web pages creation with
Python.
The web developer using PyHP will find inside his/her pages a new Python
object called pyhp which is full of all the functionalities needed to develop advanced web sites.
Here there is a quick list of what's been implemented so far:
