Not sure what the level of effort would be though, as I've never delved into using python on the web.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Python itself isn't Esri's, just the arcpy site package. There are a ton of modules out there, including ones for doing both server-side and client-side web programming.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><A href="https://wiki.python.org/moin/WebProgramming">https://wiki.python.org/moin/WebProgramming</A></BODY></HTML> Mon, 23 Dec 2013 15:33:49 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/can-non-gis-web-page-display-python-results-from/m-p/444735#M34844 MattSayler 2013-12-23T15:33:49Z
