Calling Python from JavaScript

Is there a simple way to call Python libraries from JavaScript? Especially from the inside of a Firefox extension.

A good option to compile a pure Python library would also be great. I looked at Pyjamas, but it seems to offer only partial support for Python.

You would either need a browser with builtin python support (but this is not a standard, hence it would defeat the purpose of using a webapp - if you need a special client, you can better use a classic gui), or a way to translate Python to Javascript; there three options for this at the time:

Pyjamas

Skulpt

PyPy

On the contrary, if you just want to extend Firefox, take a look at this:
