I don't know this script, but this error means that the string xy has more than 
2 items that are separated by a tab (or by a space in the earlier post). 

xy = "item_a item_b item_c"
x,y = xy.split(" ") 

will produce this error. There are several ways to fix it. 

1) change xy so that it is only containing 2 items
2) change the parsing of xy to: x,y = xy.split(" ")[0:2]
   (this gets the first 2 items and ignores the rest
3) put the statement inside an error trap like try/except
