Several templating engines support this in one way or another: Mako, Jinja, and Genshi are all popular choices.

Different engines support different features of Python and may be better suited to your needs. Your best bet is to try them out and see what works.

There is... But you're highly suggested to use a templating engine, or some other means of separating the presentation from the business layer.

There are some available that use python as the templating language, but it's nasty because python is sensitive to whitespace, so special syntax hacks have to be added.
