I've written the following function which successfully gets an
authenticated URL:
def getRestrictedURL(authName,URL,log,pswd):
auth_handler = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler()
auth_handler.add_password(authName, URL,log,pswd)
opener = urllib2.build_opener(auth_handler)
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
return opener.open(URL).read()
# But, alas, any links in content 'beneath' the URL
# require additional authentication.
Any way around this?
Thanks
