Question

I need save the HTML code of any website in a txt file, is a very easy exercise but I have doubts with this because a have a function that do this:

import ur         


        

Answer 1

Easiest way would be to use urlretrieve:

import urllib

urllib.urlretrieve("http://www.example.com/test.html", "test.txt")

For Python 3.x the code is as follows:

import urllib.request    
urllib.request.urlretrieve("http://www.example.com/test.html", "test.txt")
