[Tutor] ascii to/from AL32UTF8 conversion

[bruce]

Hi.

Doing a 'simple' test with linux command line curl, as well as pycurl
to fetch a page from a server.

The page has a charset of  >>AL32UTF8.

Anyway to conert this to straight ascii. Python is throwing a
notice/error on the charset in another part of the test..

The target site is US based, so there's no weird chars in it.. I
suspect that the page/system is based on legacy oracle

The metadata of the page is

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" NAME="META" CONTENT="text/html;
charset=AL32UTF8">

I tried the usual

foo = foo.decode('utf-8')
foo = foo.decode('ansii')
etc..

but no luck.

Thanks for any pointers/help
