Hi,

trying to learn using HTMLLib.py I did try the following code, but it gives
me error . Everything is included in this mail. What's wrong with me?

Thanks

================= Code =====================

from htmllib import HTMLParser
from string import lower
from htmlentitydefs import entitydefs
import sys

class WPage(HTMLParser):

    def __init__(self, verbose=0):
        self.testdata = ""
        HTMLParser.__init__(self, verbose)

    def do_meta(self, attributes):
        data = self.testdata
        if data and lower(attributes[0][1])=="description":
	            print 'Description:', str(attributes[1][1])

    def close(self):
        HTMLParser.close(self)

def test(args = None):

    try:
       f = open('test.html', 'r')
    except IOError, msg:
       print file, ":", msg
       sys.exit(1)
    data = f.read()
    x = WPage()
    x.feed(data)
    x.close()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    test()
