1 | 0 | I like to use Python's SimpleHTTPServer for local development of all kinds of web applications which require loading resources via Ajax calls etc.
When I use query strings in my URLs, the server always redirects to the same URL with a slash appended.

For example http://localhost:8000/?param1=1 does a redirect (301) and changes the url to http://localhost:8000/?p... | 0 | 6,427 | 0 | 13 | 2012-10-18T11:26:00.000 | python,simplehttpserver,webdev.webserver | Why does SimpleHTTPServer redirect to ?querystring/ when I request ?querystring? | 1 | 1 | 3 | 25,786,569 | 0 |

1 | 0 | I'm using the python framework Boto to interact with AWS DynamoDB. But when I use "item_count" it returns the wrong value. What's the best way to retrieve the number of items in a table?

1 | 0 | I'm extremely new to Python, read about half a beginner book for Python3. I figure doing this will get me going and learning with something I actually want to do instead of going through some "boring" exercises.
