I'll do this just once, but next time, don't expect others to track down 
the error message for you. We're volunteers, we don't owe you anything, 
so if you want us to help, you make it easy for us. Some people have 
access to email, but not web. If you can't be bothered to copy and paste 
the error message into an email or news post, why should we be bothered 
to help you?


The error you are getting is:

NameError: name 'time' is not defined 

That tells you that you don't have a function called time() defined 
anywhere. You need to import the time module first:

import time

and then use the fully qualified function name time.time(), or do:

from time import time

and then use the function alone time().

What encoding does the web page claim to be?

You need to check the document encoding, and see that it matches the 
document encoding you are actually using.
