Question

How do I display on an html page an xml?

how can I set in python text/html?

I’m writing in the html as:

response.out.write

Answer 1

Assuming your using mod_python:

response.content_type = "text/xml"

Or:

response.content_type = "text/html"

http://www.modpython.org/live/current/doc-html/pyapi-mprequest-mem.html

content_type

String. The content type. Mod_python maintains an
internal flag (req._content_type_set) to keep track of whether
content_type was set manually from within Python. The publisher
handler uses this flag in the following way: when content_type isn’t
explicitly set, it attempts to guess the content type by examining the
first few bytes of the output.

If you just want to have pretty xml output in a text file, use BeautifulSoup prettify() on the xml.
