The way I have come up with to solve this problem is to put the
following loop in:
rawfeed = feedparser(http//twitter.com/foobar....)
feedstring = rawfeed.split('=',1) #this splits the feed at
the first "="
headline = feedstring[0] #this is the text
infront of the "=" sign.
if len(headlinestring) == len(rawfeed) #ie. if the split hasn't
worked they will be exactly the same >>> body =
"\x7b\x7bEmpty\x7d\x7d" #this adds an "{{Empty}}" template
to the wiki
else:
body = feedstring[1]
Sorry, where is the loop?
But I can't get it to work - I have tried various indents and break
and continues - but I don't know enough about loops to identify what
I
have done wrong.
I'm confused, there is no loop only a conditional statement (if/else)
The only loops supported in Python are for and while (OK you
could count list comprehensions/generator expressions too) and
neither of them are in your code.
However you don't tell us what is happening that you don;t expect.
Are you getting an error message? If so what (all of it please)?
Or is it just the output that is different to what you expect?
if so what did you expect and what did you get?
And finally which version of Python and which OS please?
