Python: Favorite articles and some links

David Mertz's articles, sample chapter from Python Standard Library and using ODBC to hook up to File Maker Pro.

I’ve been reading David Mertz’s Charming Python and XML matters columns in IBM DeveloperZone for some time. Very nicely written articles, but it was a pain to go back and find them within that site. Saw that David has put up his copies with a nice index. Thanks!

Dive into Python has good chapters on HTML processing and XML processing.

Last year, I purchased the electronic copy of Frederick Lundh’s excellent book, Python Standard Library. Sample chapter explaining file formats is now online.

Martin Heller writes about generating websites from a database, using FileMaker Pro. He uses ODBC. *sigh* 2 years ago, when I wanted to get stuff out of FileMaker Pro, it didn’t have ODBC capability. Ended up making a web page that prints out XML, then a python script that goes there, downloads the XML, parse it and then put it in Oracle.
