Well, there really are two ways you could go about it depending on what
you are more comfortable with.
One way:
import re
line = '<...>' # all that stuff from above
regExp = re.compile('Request')
if regExp.match(line):
print 'I found requested'
or you can use one of the string modules, I suggest hitting up the
documentation on python.org if you wish to know string functions.
