I tried both of those and got a different error. I have since fixed it
so I no longer have the exact text, but it was something about not
supporting convertion from unicode. I finally ended up doing this:
self.title�ta.find("title").text.encode("utf-8")
and it seems happy enough, though I get odd characters above 128. I
suppose it is better than a traceback, and I suspect I just have the
wrong character set. Still, I found it very odd that unicode(string,
errors=eplace') threw an exception.
Well as I said before it would certainly have helped if you had quoted
the entire error in the first place. That includes the stack trace.
But now that it's gone, you could answer some of the other questions.
How are you using this self.title value? It's apparently a byte
string, and you say it displays incorrectly. But what device are you
sending it to? Your console on Windows, or your messagebox on wxPython?
Or where?
