I'm using urllib.urlretrieve() to download HTML pages, and I've hit a snag with URLs containing ampersands:
http://www.example.com/parrot.php?x=1&y=2 Somewhere in the process, urls like the above are escaped to: http://www.example.com/parrot.php?x=1&y=2 which naturally fails to exist. I could just do a string replace, but is there a "right" way to escape and unescape URLs? I've looked through the standard lib, but I can't find anything helpful. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
