New submission from Ambarish Malpani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Try the following code: import urllib import urllib2
url = 'http://features.us.reuters.com//autos/news/95ED98EE-A837-11DC-BCB3-4F218271.html' data = urllib.urlopen(url).read() data2 = urllib2.urlopen(url).read() The attempt to get it with urllib works fine. With urllib2, the request is malformed and I get back a HTTP 404 Request in the 2nd case is: GET //autos/news/95ED98EE-A837-11DC-BCB3-4F218271.html HTTP/1.1\r\n Accept-Encoding: identity\r\n Host: autos\r\n Connection: close\r\n .... The host line seems to be looking for the last // rather than the first. ---------- components: Extension Modules messages: 66334 nosy: ambarish severity: normal status: open title: urllib2.urlopen() gets confused with path with // in it type: behavior versions: Python 2.5 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2776> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
