It took me days to figure out what was going on when dealing with unicode, ascii, latin1, utf8, decodeerrors, etc, so I'm just chiming in to echo something similar iapain's comments: When dealing with unicode, i've run into situations where I have multiple encodings in the same string, usually latin1 and utf8 (latin1 != ascii, and latin1 != utf8, and they don't play nice together). So, for future readers, if you have problems dealing with unicode encode and decode, try using a mix of latin1 and utf8 encodings to figure out whats going on, and what characters are fubar'ing the process. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
