In order for your code to show, you need several things:
Firstly, there needs to be a server that handles HTTP requests. At the moment you are just opening a file with Firefox on your local hard drive. A server like Apache or something similar is required.
Secondly, presuming that you now have a server that serves the files, you will also need something that interprets the code as Python code for the server. For Python users, the go-to solution is nowadays mod_wsgi. But for simpler cases, you could stick with CGI (more info here), but if you want to produce web pages easily, you should go with an existing Python web framework like Django.
Setting this up can be quite the hassle, so be prepared.
