Indeed. Using an http request to call a local script is totally
braindead, but this is another problem.
Which one ? What you showed is a way to generate an image resource (with
mime-type 'image/png'), not an html page resource (mime-type :
text/html). Images resources are not directly embedded in html pages -
they are *referenced* from web pages (using an <imgtag), then it's up
to the user-agent (usually, the browser) to emit another http request to
get the image.
Not tested (obviously), but what you want is something like:
print "Content-type: text/html\n"
print """
<html>
<head>
<title>data analysis site</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>This is a trial test</p>
<img src="http://localhost/myLibs/ChartLib.py?%s" />
</body>
</html>
""" % urllib.urlencod e(TheData)
The code you showed so far either tried to add text/html to an image
(that is, binary data), or to embed the image's binary data into
text/html. None of this makes sense. Period. The problem is not with
Python. The problem is that you can't seriously hope to do web
programming without any knowledge of the http protocol.
Also and FWIW, you'd be better using a decent templating system (mako,
cheetah, genshi, tal, whatever fits your brain) instead of generating
html that way.
