Hello, folks!
I use mechanize.clientform to parse HTML-forms. I preliminary check
response and call response.read().find("..."). But when it's taken to
ClientForm.ParseResponse, it can't parse because of response.read() is
zero-length text. The problem is that ClientForm.ParseResponse is not
taken text of response, only object.
Example:
import urllib
from ClientForm import ParseResponse
response = urllib.urlopen("http://yandex.ru";)
if -1 != response.read().find("foobar"):
pass
form = ParseResponse(response)[1] <-- there is exception IndexError
It might be that read() is consuming the data, so there's none remaining
for the second read(). Try:
response = urllib.urlopen("http://yandex.ru";)
text = response.read()
if "foobar" in text: # preferred to find()
pass
form = ParseResponse(text)[1]
