reg - timer........

[Manikandan R]

Hai..

         I have planned to access the web page via python coding, for that I
use

        url = 'http:\\username:password at webpage.com'
        urllib.urlopen(url)

       It opens fine when its correct web page else it hangs there....  So I
have planned to start a timer when i launch the web page, if time exceeds it
will exit the thread. But I don't know how to do this can U please help me.

      Is there is any inbuilt command to do this.

         Note: I am going to open the web page via thread. Give me an idea
or code which will be helpful for me...

Thank's and Regard's,
R.Manikandan.
