OK i find this a quark in string.find that i think needs some consideration.
Normally if a substring is not in the searched_string then string.find returns -1 (why not len(searched_string) + 1, i don't know but nevermind that) but what if a searched_string == '' ? Then string.find(substring,searched_string) == 0 ? example: >>> import string >>> searched_string="abcdefg" >>> substring="123" >>> print string.find(substring,searched_string) -1 >>> searched_string="" >>> print string.find(substring,searched_string) 0 >>> why would this be? And when is someone going to fix it :P - Haz -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
