I have been doing CGI scripting for 17 years now and having developed extensive resources in python
and other programming languages. I would hate to give up such resources so am doing some research
in advance as to compatibility. I work on linux and mac workstations and provide services to those using
linux servers.

What would be the preferred "dupalist" way to use content delivered from a python script, for example?
Could I use a url like http://www.my_drupal_site/py/node1/pp0/pp1/pp2 ... ?

Explanations would be appreciated, however pointers to URLs on discussions of similar topics
would be welcome as well.

thanks
tim

No answer? Quite disappointing!

Not sure entirely what you're after, but I would think you can output your content via XML or JSON and then parse that with feeds: http://drupal.org/project/feeds using the XPATH parser http://drupal.org/project/feeds_xpathparser or QueryParser http://drupal.org/project/querypath. This way your data will be integrated into Drupal and mapped to your database in whatever you want or need.

More specifically, it would be as I would do it in an AJAX-based app.
1)link in a web page
2)Link is clicked on.
3)Response from link is written to one or more DIV tag.
I will take a look at the links provided. Unfortunately, since there is no email nofication
of responses, I've kind of spaced out this until now (november 9).
Thanks very much for your response, Brian
cheers
