Fwd: Re: Different results for different versions of urllib2

[Dave Angel]

You forgot to include the list in your response.  I don't normally
respond to private messages, but I'll make an exception.

Well it's not on urllib2 file.
I just switched it from a 2.6 urllib2.py and same result..


And by top-posting, you messed up the sequence.  I pasted it to the
proper place, but of course it's not formatted right.

Anyway, I can't help you with the urlib2-specific portion of your
problem. I could give you some advice on how to get quality responses,
though.

1) Don't retype it, copy/paste it.  Far too much time is wasted finding
bugs which were just introduced when people compose their emails by
retyping stuff.   Post exactly what you ran.

2) Be specific about what behavior has you bothered.  You say it's
"different".  From that I could conclude that in Python 2.6 it prints
"April Fool" and in Python 2.7 it blows up your machine.
