I have just started learning python and I need some help. I have the answer but I do not know how to submit it.

Is this the right path to go: req = urllib2.Request(url,Answer,dicHeaders)

markupreq = urllib2.Request('url',values)

markupreq = urllib2.Request('url', values)

@Mitz You forgot a space.

And yes; it's important.

I might as well bump this as I'm in the exact same place now.

This is my current failure

values = urllib.urlencode ({'ans' : total,
                            'submit' : 'Check',
                            })


req = urllib2.Request(url, values)
response = urllib2.urlopen(req) 

And with that Im getting a malformed request asking me to make sure no referer spoofing applications are active

That is because you are not including a referer in your header of your request.

Other than that, why don't you use the opener that I showed you how to build?

Build it then:

markupresp = opener.open("http://www.hellboundhackers.org/challenges/timed/timed2/index.php?check", data)

Where data is your urlencoded data (ans, submit).

Thanks I actually was trying that first, but for some reason couldnt get it to work, so turned here and was using the older way.

Hopefully with a few modifications then I can get it working.

Edit: yeah I looked at my original attempt and was missing 2 things, both trivial and stupid. Thanks again for the help.
