Hey, I am working with Python's SimpleCookie and I ran into this problem and I am not sure if it is something with my syntax or what. Also, this is classwork for my Python class so it is meant to teach about Python so this is far from the way I would do this in the real world. Anyway, so basically I am keeping information input into ...

Like: {% for field in form%} {% if field == title %} {% else %} {{ field }} {% endif %} {% endfor %} I...

How to access a COM object from a python file using python 3.0. And, yes, I know that not a lot of people are using Python 3.0. Switching back to 2.6 is a huge hassle for me, so I don't want to unless I absolutely have to. I appreciate your time, and any assistance! ...
I've tried to find a comprehensive guide on whether it is best to use 'import module' or 'from module import'. I've just started with Python, with the intention for developing web applications with Django, and I'm trying to start off with best practices in mind. Basically, I was hoping if anyone could share their experiences, what prefe...
Many 3rd party python modules have an attribute which holds the version info for the module (usually something like module.VERSION or module.__version__), however some do not. Particular examples of such modules are libxslt and libxml2. I need to check that the correct version of these modules are being used at runtime. Is there a way ...

When I call execfile without passing the globals or locals arguments it creates objects in the current namespace, but if I call execfile and specify a dict for globals (and/or locals), it creates objects in the __builtin__ namespace. Take the following example: # exec.py def myfunc(): print 'myfunc created in %s namespace' % __nam...

I'm creating a bar chart with matplotlib-0.91 (for the first time) but the y axis labels are being cut off. If I increase the width of the figure enough they eventually show up completely but then the output is not the correct size. Any way to deal with this? ...
There is cgi.escape but that appears to be implemented in pure python. It seems like most frameworks like Django also just run some regular expressions. This is something we do a lot, so it would be good to have it be as fast as possible. Maybe C implementations wouldn't be much faster than a series of regexes for this? ...
This is what my crontab file looks like: * * * * * root /usr/bin/python /root/test.py >> /root/classwatch.log 2>&1 This is what my python script looks like: #!/usr/bin/python print "hello" The cronjob creates the log file. But it is empty. I am also pretty certain that the python file is not being executed. Appreciate any help! I...

After getting RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration I pickled the dictionary after deleting the k/v and in one of the outer loops I try to reopen the newly pickled/updated dictionary. However, as many of you will probably know-I get the same error-I think when it...

For example: If my epoch time is: 1238720309 I can get the utc time as: d = datetime.utcfromtim...
In a Pylons webapp, I need to take a string such as "<3, 45, 46, 48-51, 77" and create a list of ints (which are actually IDs of objects) to search on. Any suggestions on ways to do this? I'm new to Python, and I haven't found anything out there that helps with this kind of thing. The list would be: [1, 2, 3, 45, 46, 48, 49, 50, 51, 7...
Yes, this is as stupid a situation as it sounds like. Due to some extremely annoying hosting restrictions and unresponsive tech support, I have to use a CSV file as a database. While I can use MySQL with PHP, I can't use it with the Python backend of my program because of install issues with the host. I can't use SQLite with PHP bec...
