No. But just chaning it won't make it work with HTTPConnect either. 
I'dhave to rewrite the whole class (not that it's that big... but still)
That's all I'm saying.

There is no way whatsoever that I can get it to work with what I've got!
Wget works, so I presume that it's the parameters that are passed that 
httplib just plain can't handle.
The problem is that this isn't documented anywhere.
Could it be that the parameters invoke a serverresponse that is somehow 
different from a normal response to an URL and therefore isn't 'sensed' 
by httplib?
When I use a any kind of Browser or wget it works! It simply doesn't 
work with httplib. One Moment please
....
Back again.
Just did another test. It won't work with HTTPConnection either!
Status is: 302 reason is: Found
What the fuck is happening that Browser and Wget take care of but 
httplib don't??? I'd really like to know. Any clue?
