Hi,
I have the following code -
import urllib2
from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
proxy_support = urllib2.ProxyHandler({"http":"http://
999.999.999.999:8080"})
opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy_support)
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
page = urllib2.urlopen('http://www.cornish-language.org/CORNISH/
membership.asp')
soup = BeautifulSoup(page)
pageText = soup.findAll(text=True)
print pageText
Sometimes when I run this code I get the exception -
HTTPError: HTTP Error 407 Proxy authentication required
I seem to get this error repeatidly for a while, then I go a surf for
a moment and when I run the code again the exception might have gone
away. No idea why...
I have no problems with firefox which uses the same proxy. The proxy
requires no authentication...
What might the issue be?
Thanks,
Barry.
