You said you wanted a 4-digit number.  There are 10,000 different 4-digit
numbers.

	Why not? What is "BIG"...

	10,000 paths of 255 characters is (presume ASCII 1-byte per
character) means you have 2,550,000  characters -- That's LESS THAN
THREE MB for all the file paths. Add in a 2-byte short integer ID and
you've got 20,000 bytes of IDs. Creating unique indices (ID should
already be a unique auto-increment column) double the data usage plus
maybe 160,000 bytes for the pointers from the index to the data record.

	2,550,000 + 20,000 => 2,570,000		raw data
	2,570,000 + 160,000 => 2,730,000	indices

	2,570,000 + 2,730,000 => 5,300,000	5MB maximum

	I could store all that on my ancient PDA!

	We've probably generated that much text in the two discussion
threads alone!


	The safest way to generate your four digit integer, without running
the risk of collision from hashing, is a simple database table with
unique ID column and unique filepath column.

They are not big. They are tiny.

Please stop being too arrogant to listen to advice from people who have 
been programming for years or decades.

Unfortunately a spoon wouldn't help in this case as the soup is being 
served in a basket.  However I still absolutely insist that a Python 
solution to this problem is found.

I insist, perhaps compeleld, to use a key to associate a number to a filename.
Would you help please?

I dont know this is supposed to be written. i just know i need this:

number = function_that_returns_a_number_out_of_a_string( absolute_path_of_a_html_file)

Would someone help me write that in python coding? We are talkign 1 line of code here....

Unfortunately this isn't the way to go either.  Apache uses its own
config and rules to map a url to a "filepath."  There's no way for
Python to do this without interrogating Apache.  And it's not necessary
anyway.  Urls to paths are mapped in a fairly static way by Apache.
Just put your files in the right folders and generate the appropriate
urls.  It's not hard.  You're struggling because you either don't
understand how apache works, or you're trying to work against it.  I've
been deploying web sites for years and I've never had to do any of the
things you are trying to make Python do.

So all that crap you wrote in past threads about absolutely
essentially needing to identify a html page _no matter where it was
stored on the filesystem_ *was* just crap then?

You're almost certainly trolling. On the minimal chance that you're
not, you should _never_ be identifying a web page by its physical
storage location, you should be identifying it by its _url_.

But your "oh no, those two lines of code are two complex, I MUST DO IT
WITH INT" shrillness has pretty much convinced me you're an idiot and/
or a troll.

Look out, everyone, Br'er Ferrous is trying to get you all stuck in a
tar thread again.
