Just to clarify, using a fragment (#) like that isn't a standard query. It's a JavaScript trick for manipulating browser history based on location.hash, so one can do AJAX page refreshes without breaking the back button. You can see the actual query URL ('.../search?hl=en') if you view the background GET (e.g. in the Firefox web console). urlparse.urlsplit parses 'hl=en' as the fragment in this case: >>> urlparse.urlsplit('https://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en') SplitResult(scheme='https', netloc='www.google.co.uk', path='/', query='', fragment='hl=en') _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
