About this site

This site is built using web.py version 0.33, because that's what Site5 supports. It's also running about Python 2.6 for the same reason.

The site uses Mobile JQuery.

To use web.py with Site5, I needed to follow a few key steps:

• Added this line AddHandler fcgid-script .py to my .htaccess file, which is slightly different than what is recommended on the webpy.org site (fastcgi-script)
• Created a local link to python2.6 and a local install of web.py 0.33 to match the production environment.

It seemed like I learned a lot more than 2 points, but I think that's mostly me learning what not to do. For example:

• Don't use periods in class or id names with jQuery.
• Permissions are always important. Check permissions with the

  namei -m

  command. Anonymous access is the most important. Apache/Anonymous must have execute rights on all directories in the path and read rights on every file.
• Rather than banging my head against a way, I followed these instructions for setting up an SVN repository with Eclipse.
