urllib2 automatically handles the 302 redirection. What you get as the end result is the 'redirected' page. - If all you want is the 'redirected' page. Blindly use urllib2, it handles it. - If you want a 'smarter' way of handling redirection, then you might have to extend the HTTPRedirectHandler. A very good example is provided by Mark Pilgrim in his 'Dive Into Python'. Have a look here: http://www.diveintopython.org/http_web_services/index.html Example 11.1 openanything.py Implement your program along those lines.
