I don't like that. I want to do the "plumbing".

I like django, but you may want to google "python micro web framework" There are a handful with some following so that there are communities, docs, etc available As to get/cookies/sessions check out the requests module (3rd party - well received) http://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/ > -- > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list --=20 Joel Goldstick http://joelgoldstick.com
