Charles,

That looks very interesting. Amongst other uses it opens the way to 
produce customized Web pages via mod_python, which in some circumstances 
would be easier than tweaking the current org export function.

I have been experimenting with producing html exported pages optimized 
for my Nokia N95. At the moment I detect the browser string and then 
apply a different style sheet for the mobile version. However, this does 
have limitations, apart from those arising from my lack of css skills.

Using mod_python I can produce completely different output depending on 
the detected browser.

Ian.
