Can't say I've done it with MacOS-X, but Apache+PHP+Post greSQL are a
common combination. Worth checking sourforge.net / freshmeat.net and see
if there are any projects doing what you want before starting your own
though.

Apache/PHP are already prebuilt on Mac OS X. All you need to do is
donwload the postgres tarball config and compile.
Small notte on the compile. When you compile postgres either turn off
readline support or download readline from GNU and compile the static
lib.
I don't remember off hand but I think an older version of Postgres is
compiled into the standard Mac PHP. If not it is fairly easy to
recomiple PHP on the Mac. If you have any further questions about
compiling ask I can walk you though it if you need.

Additional note: configure warned of an old version of bison when I
attempted an install of postgresql7.4.5 the other day. Seems the
version
that comes with OSX 10.3.x is too old for postgres.
Only trick I encountered in installing bison from tarball was locating
the
install product in /usr/local/bin and copying it to /usr/bin (either
because
that's where postgres wants to find it, or because my path does not
include
/usr/local).

You only actually need Bison if you are building from CVS--the release
tarballs are pre-Bisonated, so you can ignore that warning. :)

Just thought I'd drop in and say hi. I'm new to Python, but old to software
development.
Python is one of the languages used in my new job, so I've just bought a
book, read it, and downloaded Python; It's pretty good isn't it? It's
particularly handy being able top run the same bytecode on different
platforms.
