Start an HTML/text server thread, so HTML or text documents can be

Define a URL handler. To determine what the client is asking
for, check the URL and content_type.
Then get or generate some text or HTML code and return it.
>>> def my_url_handler(url, content_type):
... text = 'the URL sent was: (%s, %s)' % (url, content_type)

Start server thread on port 0.
If you use port 0, the server will pick a random port number.
You can then use serverthread.port to get the port number.
>>> port = 0
>>> serverthread = pydoc._start_server(my_url_handler, port)
Check that the server is really started. If it is, open browser
and get first page. Use serverthread.url as the starting page.
>>> if serverthread.serving:

The next two lines are commented out so a browser doesn't open if
doctest is run on this module.
#... webbrowser.open(serverthread.url)
#True
Let the server do its thing. We just need to monitor its status.
Use time.sleep so the loop doesn't hog the CPU.

This is a short timeout for testing purposes.
