UOCIS322 - Project 1

Author: Kaetlyn Gibson, kaetlyng@uoregon.edu

Description: A "getting started" project for CIS 322, introduction to software engineering, at the University of Oregon. Uses a tiny web server in Python to convey understanding of basic web architecture.

Includes the following functionality in pageserver.py:

• If URL ends with name.html or name.css (i.e., if path/to/name.html is in document path (from DOCROOT)), send content of name.html or name.css with proper http response.
• If name.html is not in current directory Respond with 404 (not found).
• If a page starts with one of the symbols(~ // ..), respond with 403 forbidden error. For example, url=hostname:5000/..name.html or /~name.html would give 403 forbidden error.
