Is there any method to urlretrieve to a file the html source from a url with "Transfer-encoding": chunked

[Aldo Ceccarelli]

Thank you All for your suggestions:

I could finally assess that

besides partial read from chunked url - by-passed thanks to a socket
approach:

f.i. this was good for me: http://python.about.com/od/networkingwithpython/ss/beg_web_client_9.htm

I have still two kind of problems that quit this post's aims (original
url is redirected and has password protections too, I will go for
these now)

Again SUPER thanks to You All:-) Aldo
