That method is part of the HTTPSHandler class as the docs page you cited implies. I believe this is what urllib2.urlopen instantiates once it parses your URL and notices the "https" scheme. You don't need to instantiate that handler and invoke that method directly. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
