I'm working with Feedparser on months old install of Windows 7, and now programs that ran before are broken, and I'm getting wierd messages that are rather opaque to me. Google, Bing, News groups have all left me empty handed.
I was wondering if I could humbly impose upon the wizards of comp.lang.python to lend me their wisdom and insight to this problem that is too difficult for my little mind. Here's what I'm going through: >>>from feedparser import parse >>>url='http://feeds.nytimes.com/nyt/rss/Technology' >>>url2='http://feeds.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/rss/technology/index_xml' >>>d = parse(url) >>>d2= parse(url2) >>>d {'bozo':1, 'bozo_exception': TypeError("__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'timeout'",), 'encoding': 'utf-8', 'entries': [], 'feed':{}, 'version': None} >>>d2 {'bozo': 1, 'bozo_exception': TypeError("__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'timeout'",), 'encoding': 'utf-8', 'entries': [], 'feed': {}, 'version': None} I've checked my firewall settings, and python is allowed. Other python programs can get data from the web. I know that the 'bozo' is for malformed xml. I've searched through both of those rss feeds, and I can't find the argument 'timeout' anywhere in them. Any ideas, thoughts or directions in which I might go? Thanks to all in advance, Jonathan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
