Hi Bob, Attributes are things like methods or variables that are "attached" to a class instance. For example, instances of your CharServer class have attributes like .port or .srvsock. When you get an AttributeError, it means that you tried to access an attribute and python couldn't find the attribute you wanted. In this particular case, the error message says that on line 53, you tried to access "self.decriptors", and "self" (which is your ChatServer) didn't have a "decriptors" attribute. Looking through your code, I can see that you assign to "self.descriptors" in your __init__ method. So I guess this is just a typo --- if you change "self.decriptors" to "self.descriptors", you might have more luck :-) -- John. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
