I would just do something like this (not tested): url_tmpl = "http://www.acme.com/list?code=%02d"; p = re.compile("^(\d+)\t(.+)$") EXCLUDED_VALUES = 4, 34, 40, 44, 48, 54, 57, 67, 76, 83, 89 for i in xrange(1,100): if i in EXCLUDED_VALUES: continue f = urllib.urlopen(url_tmpl % i) try: for line in f: m = p.search(line) if m: code = m.group(1) label = m.group(2) print "Code=", code, "# Label=", label finally: f.close() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
