The problem here is that you have doubled the "for line in f:" line.
Given that you say you know some programming, I'll just cut to the
technical name of the problem you are having: You are changing the
value of a loop variable (by starting an inner loop with the same loop
variable) inside a loop.

I am not able to check your code (I get an error message about the
usage of urllib, but that might be a difference in Python
installations); however, my first guess is that you neglected to take
case into account: The page contains the text "Water", not "water", so
if you input "water", halal_haram
First read file1, and keep the result in a useful data structure (for
this simple case it can be nothing more than a dictionary with the
value in column 1 as key and the value in column 4 as value, but
perhaps it's better to find something else if you want to do more with
the data). Then go through
