I'm baffled. I duplicated your print statements but when I run this code
(or any of the 3 encodings):
file = codecs.open(p + "2.txt", "r", "cp1252")
#file = codecs.open(p + "2.txt", "r", "utf-8")
for line in file:
print line
I get this error:
*UnicodeEncodeError*: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe1' in
position 48: ordinal not in range(128)
args = ('ascii', u'<i>Noticia: Este sitio web entre este portal
est...r\xe1pidamente va a salir de aqu\xed.</i><br /><br />\r\n', 48, 49,
'ordinal not in range(128)')
encoding = 'ascii'
end = 49
object = u'<i>Noticia: Este sitio web entre este portal
est...r\xe1pidamente
va a salir de aqu\xed.</i><br /><br />\r\n'
reason = 'ordinal not in range(128)'
start = 48
Please advise. TIA,
Stan
