It looks like that is a subscription site. That makes things more complicated, because it means you'll need to figure out how to log in, then probably store cookies related to your session and offer them back up to the web server on subsequent requests. Python has modules that help with these things (mostly in the urllib2 module if i recall correctly), but it's not quite as straightforward as just fetching a URL. I don't have time to dig up an example at the moment, but if you're still having trouble with it, I can try to pull something together this weekend. -- Jerry -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
