I dont know, it does not for me.

Sorry. :-) I shall take your advice and try to get to bottom of this
issue.
- To the piece of code, I import urllib
- use urllib.quote() to covert the proxy url to a quoted one.
and try again, I get an error:
<error>
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python24\forge\ngwallp\ngwall.py", line 38, in ?
data = urllib2.urlopen(site)
File "C:\Python24\lib\urllib2.py", line 130, in urlopen
http://lava.nationalgeographic.com/cgi-bin/pod/wallpaper.cgi?day=13&month=11&year=06
return _opener.open(url, data)
File "C:\Python24\lib\urllib2.py", line 358, in open
response = self._open(req, data)
File "C:\Python24\lib\urllib2.py", line 376, in _open
'_open', req)
File "C:\Python24\lib\urllib2.py", line 337, in _call_chain
result = func(*args)
File "C:\Python24\lib\urllib2.py", line 573, in <lambda>

File "C:\Python24\lib\urllib2.py", line 580, in proxy_open
if '@' in host:
TypeError: iterable argument required
</error>
This is where, I gave up and wrote the previous email as not to mess up
urllib with urllib2.
The piece of code, was working properly till I changed my proxy
password to something containng '|\/|'.
- Before shooting a mail to the grooups, i kindda encoded password to
valid url characters ( %7C%5C/%7C) and tried. But this did not work.
So, I dont think this is urllib.quote() issue. I am looking for a way
as how to use the ProxyHandler with authentication in different way
than I have used below.
proxy_url_add = r'http://' + proxy_user + ':' + proxy_password + '@' +
PROXY_IP
proxy_url = urllib.quote(proxy_url_add)
proxy_support = urllib2.ProxyHandler({"http":proxy_url})
opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy_support,urllib2.HTTPHandler)
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
Thanks for your response.
Regards,
Senthil
