Hi All,
I am trying to read a webpage into a variable. My intention is to search for
patterns within the page. I am stuck because I get this error shown below
....
I have 2.5.1 Windows installer. I have tried repairing it but it takes me
down in the same hole ...everything else seems to work fine in python
Anyone else who encountered similar problem?
Funny thing is it works on my second computer :-|
Thanks
Gagan
