Why doesn't this work?

[Dr. Peter Stoehr]

Hi Matt,

the following code works perfectly for me ...

import httplib
h=httplib.HTTP("www.weihenstephan.org")
h.putrequest('GET', '/~petestoe/index.html')
h.putheader('Accept', 'text/html')
h.putheader('Accept', 'text/plain')
h.endheaders()
errcode, errmsg, headers = h.getreply()
print errcode # Should be 200
f = h.getfile()
data = f.read() # Get the raw HTML
f.close()


so it seems to me that your problem is at some other place of your code.
