New submission from Tyler Starke <prof.eb...@gmail.com>: It seems bad practice for urllib methods to demand a str instance and they should demand a unicode instance. By demanding a str instance the default behavior is too demanding, for the web space it is being used, for the English language. We would want Python to extend beyond English when it uses urllib
Currently I am encoding the unicode passed with 'utf-8' and that works. ---------- components: Library (Lib), Unicode messages: 148165 nosy: Tyler.Starke, ezio.melotti priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: urllib methods should demand unicode, instead demand str type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13460> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
