Hey all,

I'm a computer science student, and I mostly do things with Java and Python. I'm wondering if anyone can help me learn how to use the python urllib to make web programs. Any help or sample code would be appreciated.

Some great tutorials I've found on Python are:

• http://diveintopython.org/toc/index.html
• http://heather.cs.ucdavis.edu/~matloff/python.html

For code examples on urlib, check out the python documentation. I personally recommend urlib2. But even better than that is a neat little module called mechanize.

Thanks a lot. Exactly the kind of thing I was looking for.
