How do I parse and otherwise work with that?I have yet another problem with this. Once I've determined it's a Set or a datetime, I do this:for itm in colValue[0]: try: color, number = string.split(itm, ':') html += "<option name='%s'>%s</option>" % (itm, color) except: html += "<option name='%s'>%s</option>" % (itm, itm)The reason is I've entered my colors into my table as nameOfColor:colorNumber and I want to break them out for presentation purposes. However, the try never executes, only the except, and that shouldn't be. I can slice the itm. What gives?
1. Print repr(itm) so that you can check what it actually is. Is it what you expected? 2. DON'T USE BARE EXCEPTS! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
