Thanks for keeping a copy of the feed. The problem doesn't show with the current version. Basically, the problem is a bug in the HTML of the feed: <p>More ANPR camera technology is unjustifiable if there are even fewer actual Traffic Police patrols on the road.</p> <blockquote><li>"Using hypothecated income from Fixed Penalty Notices resulting from ANPR activity to fund further ANPR development"</ul></blockquote> You see that the second paragraph closes an <ul> element but it never actually opens one. rss2email seens the closing </ul> and wants to get rid of the opening <ul> but that fails because the list is empty. Some debugging shows how rss2email sees this portion of the feed: p [] 1 p None 0 blockquote [] 1 li [] 1 ul None 0 start is None so it will try to remove an item from the list. However, as you can see in the paragraph above (li), the list is emtpy. So popping from there is Not a Good Idea(tm). I think the appropriate patch is: --- html2text.py~ 2005-05-23 22:46:45.983858424 +0100 +++ html2text.py 2005-05-23 22:46:55.402426584 +0100 @@ -276,7 +276,7 @@ if tag in ["ol", "ul"]: if start: self.list.append({'name':tag, 'num':0}) - else: + elif self.list: self.list.pop() self.p() I suppose the same problem might occur in other parts of html2text.py but I didn't check. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
