I don't understand why this code gives me a white page in my browser. This is my script:
# H8_webserver_cgi_run_v2.py
# Before the server is running:
# http://localhost:8080/H8_cgi/test-1.py
from http.server import HTTPServer, CGIHTTPRequestHandler
## cgi_directories
## This defaults to
['/cgi-bin', '/htbin']
CGIHTTPRequestHandler.cgi_directories=['/H8_cgi']
port = 8080
httpd = HTTPServer(('127.0.0.1', port), CGIHTTPRequestHandler)
print("Starting simple_httpd on port: " + str(httpd.server_port))
print("cgi-dirs: ",CGIHTTPRequestHandler.cgi_directories)
print('try: http://localhost:8080/H8_cgi/test1.html')
import webbrowser
webbrowser.open_new_tab('http://localhost:8080/H8_cgi/test1.html')
# First the browser, later the server. How can this possibly work?
print('First the browser, later the server. How can this possibly work?')
httpd.serve_forever()
The HTML page to wich it refers is:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<!-- Show nicely on phones and tablets -->
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no" />

</html>All I got is a white browser page. And this is the feedback of the server:

The HTML document is in the location E:\Anton\H8_cgi\test1.html The same location as the script.
How can I let this thing work?
