Riddle had programmed his own HTTP class. That's what I've been using in my Python programs.

His is overly done. Hate to hate on him, but its a nasty class. Heres mine:

import urllib

import urllib2

import cookielib



class HTTPWrapper:

	def __init__(self, KeepCookies=True):

		if(KeepCookies):

			self.cj = cookielib.CookieJar()

			self.HTTP = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(self.cj))

		else:

			self.HTTP = urllib2.build_opener()

	

	def Req(self, URL, data={}):

		return self.HTTP.open(URL,urllib.urlencode(data)).read()



	def GetBetween(self, s, leader, trailer):

		end_of_leader = s.index(leader) + len(leader)

	  	start_of_trailer = s.index(trailer, end_of_leader)

  		return s[end_of_leader:start_of_trailer]

Beautifully simple!

Matt's is woefully simple :p

If you do use it, you may want to consider building on it a bit

Its pretty easy to build upon also Simple code is normally the preferred code.
