How to run a Python script on clicking Submit button in HTML using Django?

I am using Django as the framework but I'm pretty new to Django.

I have an HTML file with me that is showing up using Django as the framework. I have added a Submit button to the HTML page. I have a python script saved locally on my server. Is there any way to run the python when clicking on the Submit button? Or can this be done when clicking on an image/logo?

invoking a python script on click of HTML button can be accomplished using python-django framework.

The ajax for it is written this way

<input type = “button” id=”b1″ value=”1″>

<script>
  $(document).ready(function(){
  $("#b1").click(function(){
  $.ajax({
    method: "GET",
    url: "type your python script path here",
    data: {"place" : value},
    dataType: "text",
    success: function(result){
      var data=JSON.parse(result);
      console.log(result);
    }
  });
});

</script>

hope this works
