Am basically using the same code - the first which uses a function
getAnchors() fails to find a match, the second which I added to help debug
works fine.  I just cannot see why one works and the other does not.... 

Could someone please put me out of my misery!!
Using 2.6

### Fails to find a match - though does do in the code below
                                                if res != None:
                                                       
anchors.append(res.group()[4:])


getAnchors()
## Below works - finds a match(s)
contents=readFile('/home/mark/www/dev/ready/static/lpi101/lpi101-chapt-1-3.html')
for line in contents:
        res=anchor.search(line)
        if res != None:
                anchors.append(res.group()[4:])
