I think — is actually an invalid code, since 151 is part of cp1252 and does not exist in latin-1/unicode, but most browsers will probably treat this as cp1252. The problem is that your html_stripper.stip() method parses and outputs numeric entities between 0 and 255 (this is how the SGMLParser operates), and then Kid doesn't know how to handle these characters, and to increase the confusion, Kid outputs a wrong error message, probably becasuse of this Python bug: http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1748292&group_id=5470&atid=105470). A quick and dirty fix would be this: modified_summary = html_stripper.strip(safe_summary).decode('cp1252') -- Chris --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
