statement. . I've tried adding arguments, in case I missed one, and it
still gets a syntax error.
here's the info:
#row is a dictionary with keys: zid, keywords, citation, quotation
def print_row(row):
print row;
print "row in
print_row","kw=",row["keywords"],"q=",row["quotation"],"c =

</tr>
"""%row['keywords'],row['quotation'],row['citation'],row['zid']

here's the output, with my debugging info:

Another technique is to use named string fields in the interpolation format:
print """<tr>
<td class="pad">%(keywords)s
</td>
<td class="pad">%(quotation)s
</td>
<td class="pad">%(citation)s
</td>
<td class="pad" align="center"><form action="update.cgi"
name="updateform" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
method="GET"><input type="hidden" name="zid" value="%(zid)d"><input
type="submit" value="Edit"></form>
</td>
</tr>
""" % row
This style is a bit easier to follow, and later maintain.

thanks. solution 1 worked like a charm.
