Doh.  I meant to write "urllib.quote_plus()".  My apologies!



This being said, the urllib module also has a nice function called
urlencode() that may be useful for you:

###
>>> urllib.urlencode( [('name', 'dyoo'),
...                   ('mailing_list', 'tutor@python.org')] )
'name=dyoo&mailing_list=tutor%40python.org'
###

so you may be able to avoid quoting every single cgi parameter manually,
and instead use urllib.urlencode() to do it all at once.


For more information about these functions, you can take a look at:
