open an https file
 |
I'm trying to open an https file using python on windows:
https://www3.eub.gov.ab.ca/eub/dds/i...Number=1438224
My current attempt was this:
import urllib
import urllib2
the_url = 'https://www3.eub.gov.ab.ca/eub/dds/iar_query/ApplicationAttachments.aspx'
values = {'AppNumber':'1438224'}
data = urllib.urlencode(values)
req = urllib2.Request(the_url, data)
handle = urllib2.urlopen(req)
At this point i get an error:
urlopen error unknown url type: https
How can I open this file with python and create a list of links on the page?

This is a secure website you are trying to get to, that could be a problem!
May 'the Google' be with you!

Maybe this will help?

Looks to be a Python module that will help you download from HTTPS sites. I assume regular HTTP GET commands, etc, won't work through an encrypted connection.
