I'm not sure what you are looking for. Scrapy, BS etc will help you read the HTML but not to fetch the file. Also do you want to process the file (extract the text) in Python too, or is it enough to just fetch the file? If the problem is with reading the HTML then you need to give us more detail about the problem areas and HTML format. If the problem is fetching the file, it sounds like you have already done that and it should be a case of fine tuning/tidying up the code you've written. What kind of help exactly are you asking for? -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
