I am writing this for the confused souls who want to use urllib to access url containing non-ascii characters: import urllib.request from urllib.parse import quote url = "http://www.libon.it/ricerca/7817940/3499155443/dettaglio/3102314/Onkel-Oswald-und-der-Sudan-Käfer/order/date_desc"; req = urllib.request.Request(url) try: req.selector.encode('ascii') except UnicodeEncodeError: req.selector = quote(req.selector) response = urllib.request.urlopen(req, timeout=30) the_page = response.read().decode('utf-8') print(the_page) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17214> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
