Sorry to wade in after all the other answers you've had, but a) string.find() does not *require* start and end indexes, they are optional: http://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html And b) if you're just trying to find out whether a substring exists in a string (which I'm getting the impression you're all you're doing), you can use "in":
It's about parsing: I'm not trying to find whether it is _anywhere_ in source, but _there_ at the present index.
Thank you, anyway. denis _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
