I typically use pass for a place holder. try: # Do some code here var = 1 # For example except: pass

So if anyone could suggest some code to put there as a placeholder that would be wonderful. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
