python cgi script not understood as html

Hi,

The following code outputs the actual HTML text to the browser, not the
interpreted text.

Any idea ?

Regards,

Philippe
import cgi
import logging
import auth #this is the one you must implement (or use SCF ;-)

html_ok = """

Avoid the starting newline (before content-type).
Add at least TWO newlines after content-type.

Or use a package to handle the HTTP stuff for you.

HTTP header lines must end with \r\n, not just with \n. Not sure this
is the solution to your specific problem though...
