Hi all,

Has any of you fine geniuses figured out a nice python script to go to
the Southwest airlines website and check in, and retrieve your boarding
pass - automatically 24 hours in advance


I just wrote such a script in python and tested it successfully. Where
should I post it?

Activestate's Python Cookbook sounds like a good venue for this.

Good idea - I just bought the 2nd edition of the book and it is very
good. Will check it out.

I'm happy that you liked the book, but I meant the online site, sorry if
that wasn't clear!-)

>> SW air script

Post it here, first, and these geniuses will improve it; then post it
on ActiveState. Besides, if you post it here first, I can use it. That
would be handy!

Thanks,

Whoa. Check out BeautifulSoup -- you will never write HTMLParser-based
screen scrapers again. :)

Okay, so too bad I didn't know about this before I wrote the 75 lines
of code based on HTMLParser. That said, it still wasn't that hard and
most of all it is done and it works so I won't be rewriting it. I did
check it out and it seems quite powerful. I'll add it to my library of
tools to use for the next python project. Thanks for the tip.
