urllib.quote chokes on unicode in 2.4.4. >>> print sys.version 2.4.4 (#1, Oct 18 2006, 10:34:39) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5341)] >>> urllib.quote(u"\xe9") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4//lib/python2.4/urllib.py", line 1117, in quote res = map(safe_map.__getitem__, s) KeyError: u'\xe9'
but it seems to work in Python 2.3.5 Python 2.3.5 (#1, Aug 19 2006, 21:31:42) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5363)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import sys, urllib >>> print sys.version 2.3.5 (#1, Aug 19 2006, 21:31:42) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5363)] >>> urllib.quote(u'\xe9') '%E9' Is this a known bug? What's the workaround? Thanks, nyenyec -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
