53
        status (write)
54
            Int. Response status number. Use one of the status codes defined

            responses.
61
        title (write)
62
            String. HTML page title. Used if write_html_head_foot is True, in
63
            the HTML title element text.
169 by mattgiuca
Added global common css file (media/common/ivle.css).
64
        styles (write)
65
            List of strings. Write a list of URLs to CSS files here, and they
66
            will be incorporated as <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
67
            elements in the head, if write_html_head_foot is True.
68
            URLs should be relative to the IVLE root; they will be fixed up
69
            to be site-relative.
70
        scripts (write)
71
            List of strings. Write a list of URLs to JS files here, and they

76
        write_html_head_foot (write)
77
            Boolean. If True, dispatch assumes that this is an XHTML page, and
78
            will immediately write a full HTML head, open the body element,
79
            and write heading contents to the page, before any bytes are
80
            written. It will then write footer contents and close the body and
81
            html elements at the end of execution.  
82
83
            This value should be set to true by all applications for all HTML
84
            output (unless there is a good reason, eg. exec). The
85
            applications should therefore output HTML content assuming that
86
            it will be written inside the body tag. Do not write opening or
87
            closing <html> or <body> tags.
