httplib and proxies

[Lothar Scholz]

Hello,

is it possible to get a webpage with httplib (or any other python
library) through a proxy server ? Can't find anything about this in
the documentation.

Check out urllib.

If you use urllib, you might want to try adding an empty dictionary:
proxies={} to your urllib.urlopen.
This enabled us to get past a Windows proxy server.
