I have to run the program one time just to get the dynamically generated redirect URL for the POST (it looks like this) The document has moved <a href="http://www.thenational.us/pages/htmlos/ 001863.1.059070780420726458"> I then paste the redirected URL ("http://www.thenational.us/pages/ htmlos/001863.1.059070780420726458) into the script and run it again and it works.
Let urllib2 handle the redirect for you.
f = open('C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\mydata.txt', 'r') read_data = f.read() f.close() import httplib, urllib params = urllib.urlencode({'textarea1': read_data}) headers = {"Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", "Accept": "text/plain"} conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("thenational.us:80") conn.request("POST", "/pages/htmlos/001863.5.083914970120726458", params, headers) response = conn.getresponse()
Replace the above three lines with: url = "http://thenational.us:80/pages/htmlos/001863.5.083914970120726458" req = urllib2.Request(url, params, headers) response = urllib2.urlopen(req)
print response.status, response.reason data = response.read() conn.close() f = open('C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\pydata.txt', 'a') f.write(data) f.close() --
