How to get a Python Tkinter Applet to Web Page

I wrote an applet in Python using the Tkinter library. I finished writing the applet but now I want to make it public on my website. Does anyone know a way to get the python script to work on my website? I don't want it to have to be something that needs to be downloaded, but can just run in the browser if possible. Thanks!

What you ask is not possible. Several years ago there was a Tcl/Tk browser plugin, but the last time anyone touched that sourceforge project was back in 2006. I seriously doubt it could be made to work with tkinter. For that matter, I doubt it works for tcl/tk either. Browsers have advanced quite a bit since then.

And no, getting it to work in jython so you can run it via a java plugin won't help. Tkinter works by working directly with a tcl/tk interpreter. The tcl/tk interpreter won't run in the JVM.
