my first python script (tm).

[ronan]

I'm a along time PHP developer but recently I have branched out and
started to play with Python. I'm new to this list, so I'm not sure
about the code pasting etiquette, I've attached it.

It's officially my first Python script (brought to you with a little
help from Mark Pilgrim's book) but it has a small problem. What ever
variable's I give it for url or title the 'except' always seems to be
triggered (the directory/file isn't made and the error message is
echoed).

Any idea's where I'm going wrong?
