Apparently, the HTTPS does not matter, but it is still hanging on the open(URL). I am trying to login to Yahoo!. Code below: #!/usr/bin/python import urllib import urllib2 import mechanize baseURL = 'https://login.yahoo.com/' br = mechanize.Browser() br.set_handle_robots(False) br.addheaders = [('User-Agent', 'Firefox')] #try: br.open(baseURL) It just hangs until I kill it. When I kill it, it gives me the following traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "FantasyHockeyLoginAndGetTeam.py", line 14, in <module> br.open(baseURL) File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/mechanize/_mechanize.py", line 209, in open File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/mechanize/_mechanize.py", line 236, in _mech_open File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/mechanize/_opener.py", line 202, in open File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/mechanize/_http.py", line 578, in http_response KeyboardInterrupt Thanks for any advice.
