Running a python script 

#!/usr/local/bin/python
print("Content-Type: text/html\n\n")
print("<!DOCTYPE html>")
print("<html>")
print("<body>")
import mysql.connector
mydb=mysql.connector.connect(
  host="localhost",
  user="root",
  password="XXXXXXXX",
  database="budget_2019"
)
cursorObject=mydb.cursor()
query="show tables"
cursorObject.execute(query)
print ("<table  class=box >")
print ("<TR><TH Colspan='1'>Expenses</TH></TR>")
print ("<form action=viewcf.php method=GET>")
print ("<input type=hidden name=mon value=7>")
print ("<input type=hidden name=year value=2023>")
myresult = cursorObject.fetchall()
for x in myresult:
	print("<TR><TD><input type=radio name=dbtable value={}></TD></TR>".format(x))
print("</form>")
print("</table>")
print("</body>")
print("</html>")
mydb.close()

Script runs successfully from the command line, giving this output Content-Type: text/html

Firefox doesn't automatically display the value of a radio button next to the control. You can add that to your script.
