>>> import urlparse >>> base="http://somesite.com/level1/"; >>> path="../page.html" >>> urlparse.urljoin(base,path) 'http://somesite.com/page.html' >>> base="http://somesite.com/"; >>> urlparse.urljoin(base,path) 'http://somesite.com/../page.html' For me this is a bug and is very annoying because I can't simply trip ../ from path because base could have a level. -- Best regards, -- Sérgio M.
