the quickest import sys print sys.srgv sys.argv will it output a array of all command line args ./selenium-google-test.py yankees will out put: ['selenium-google-test.py', 'yankees'] so args = sys.argv args[0] == 'yankees' True for a more functional way, check out http://docs.python.org/library/getopt.html On Tue, Jul 14, 2009 at 11:11 AM, J Cook <jcook...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I have some autogenerated code from Selenium which I cannot figure out how > to pass some command line variables to.
