Python debugging
- use Web2Py shell: http://www.vimeo.com/879939
- use IPython for interactive exploration (on Windows, install PyReadline)
- use FirePy to see logging output to Console (to view with Firebug)
- Log to a File: http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/e20d0bd2e542aa14

Web2Py
- http://web2py.com/examples/default/docs
- Prevent HTML tags being escaped in views:
{{=XML(<p>Not escaped!</p>)
}} - HTML Helpers: http://web2py.com/AlterEgo/default/show/217
- Arbitrary HTML tags using TAG, e.g. TAG.LEGEND('a','b',_c='d')
- HTML Helpers can be navigated/manipulated like the DOM: http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/ac045f3b1d3846d9
