Im following a tutorial on what i believe is using Python 2 and i'm a bit confused. I use Python 3 on windows vista. I believe urlretrieve() is a python 2 function that isnt in 3, but why is the tutorial using urllib instead of urllib2? Also when i run the program on Python 3, it says:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'urlretrieve' so Python 3 doesnt recognize this function, i want to ask if there is an equivalent function to 'urlretrieve' in Python 3? the program uses this function to download a file as so: urllib.urlretrieve(self._url, self._filename, reporthook) the 3rd argument is a function that is called to track progress of the current download status. i dont really need help with the program, i understand its code, but i need to know if this function has one similar in Python 3? or do you have any examples of how i could add its functionality to Python 3. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
