http question

[steven depret]

hello there,

a question that keeps me puzzled for some time now:



basically i want to fetch the output from an http page. The page exists out of an input field and a button to calculate my data.

The problem is that I simply cannot get my hands on the output, but only on the page itself.



Image that the following URL ( http://10.10.10.10:8765/?command=foo&inputfield=bar ) gives as result :

a = xx

b = yy



My intention is to fetch the output so that I can play with it.



this is what I do :



import httplib

connection = httplib.HTTPConnection('10.10.10.10:8765')

connection.request('POST', 'command=foo', 'inputfield=bar')

response = connection.getresponse()

output = response.read()

print output



I get a lot of stuff in my output, but simply NOT the a=xx and the b = yy.

What the heck am I doing wrong ?
