[bottlepy] <% %> not working

[Victor Zambrano]

Hello everyone, i am somewhat new to python, and quite new too bootle.

Actually i am strugling but on my way building my app.

If i type single python lines precceded with %, everything is ok, but the
next no:

<%
import sqlite3
conn=sqlite3.connect('data.db')
cur=conn.cursor()
cur.execute('''SELECT * FROM pacientes ORDER BY fecha ASC''')
data=cur.fetchall()
cur.close()
%>

Browser raises error


Exception:

SyntaxError('invalid syntax', ('C:\\blahblah\archive.tpl', 8, 1, '%>\n'))


File "C:\blahblah\archive.tpl", line 8
%>
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax


What is going on ? Tnx in advance

*UPDATE:*
Actually i found the answer. The default template format comes from
SimpleTemplate, which does not use <% block%>. To change the template
engine, we must import any of the others included like jinja or mako, each
one with its own format to include python code.
