Google app engine with ajax request and python interactions

Can anyone help me out of this problem, my javascript has an ajax GET Http request: 

    $.ajax({
     url:"/testPage",
     type:'GET',
     success: function(){ 
        alert("done");
     }
 });

the server end python app has a handler to handle the Http request from js:

class testPageHandler(webapp.RequestHandler):
   def get(self):
       path=os.path.join(os.path.dirname(_file_).'page1.html')
       template_values={}
       self.response.out.write(template.render(path,template_values))
  def post(self):
      .....
 application=webapp.WSGIApplication([('/testPage',testPageHandler),
      .....

In "get" method, I would like the Django template "page1.html" gets rendered, so the browser displays "page1.html" page, rather than just pops up "done". any idea? thanks in advance.

Django template is actually rendered and returned as response body. Now you just want to process it on client side.

$.ajax({
    url:"/testPage",
    type:'GET',
    success: function(html){ 
        $('body').append(html);
    }
});

You can manipulate the response in whatever way you like. In the example above it is just appended to the body tag.
