Change the above line. From http://docs.python.org/lib/writer-impls.html: "class DumbWriter([file[, maxcol = 72]]) Simple writer class which writes output on the file object passed in as file or, if file is omitted, on standard output." (From your code fragment it appears that you are not interested in any output - in that case you don't need the writer at all. And maybe you can use another parser, like HTMLParser.HTMLParser, so I'd ask why do you use a writer in the first place?) -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
