[New-bugs-announce] [issue8280] urllib2 passes fragment identifier to server

[INADA Naoki]

New submission from INADA Naoki <songofacandy at gmail.com>:

>>> urllib2.urlopen("http://wave-robot-python-client.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pydocs/index.html#module-wavelet")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\usr\Python2.6\lib\urllib2.py", line 126, in urlopen
    return _opener.open(url, data, timeout)
  File "C:\usr\Python2.6\lib\urllib2.py", line 398, in open
    response = meth(req, response)
  File "C:\usr\Python2.6\lib\urllib2.py", line 511, in http_response
    'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs)
  File "C:\usr\Python2.6\lib\urllib2.py", line 436, in error
    return self._call_chain(*args)
  File "C:\usr\Python2.6\lib\urllib2.py", line 370, in _call_chain
    result = func(*args)
  File "C:\usr\Python2.6\lib\urllib2.py", line 519, in http_error_default
    raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp)
urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 400: Bad Request

This happens when redirected URL contains fragment.

urllib2.Request.get_selector() should be:

    def get_selector(self):
        return self.__r_host.split('#')[0]
