You need to *call* the strip method. To see what you've actually done, do this: p = posixpath.basename(e).strip print repr(p) filename = download_dir+p To see what happens when you've fixed the problem, do this: p = posixpath.basename(e).strip() print repr(p) filename = download_dir+p *and* for portability, *don't* use "posixpath", just use "path" HTH, John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
