Not sure exactly what you have going wrong without the code or the exact url
you are using.
Does something like:
import urllib
page =
urllib.urlopen("http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/08/08/043236&tid=126";).read()
print page
give you the correct results?
Is the problem specific to only to that url?
