11.6.3 Examples
</H2>

<P>
Here is an example session that uses the "<tt class="samp">GET</tt>" method:

<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
&gt;&gt;&gt; import httplib
&gt;&gt;&gt; conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("www.python.org")
&gt;&gt;&gt; conn.request("GET", "/index.html")
&gt;&gt;&gt; r1 = conn.getresponse()
&gt;&gt;&gt; print r1.status, r1.reason
200 OK
&gt;&gt;&gt; data1 = r1.read()
&gt;&gt;&gt; conn.request("GET", "/parrot.spam")
&gt;&gt;&gt; r2 = conn.getresponse()
&gt;&gt;&gt; print r2.status, r2.reason
404 Not Found
&gt;&gt;&gt; data2 = r2.read()
&gt;&gt;&gt; conn.close()
</pre></div>

<P>
Here is an example session that shows how to "<tt class="samp">POST</tt>" requests:

<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
&gt;&gt;&gt; import httplib, urllib
&gt;&gt;&gt; params = urllib.urlencode({'spam': 1, 'eggs': 2, 'bacon': 0})
&gt;&gt;&gt; headers = {"Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
...            "Accept": "text/plain"}
&gt;&gt;&gt; conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("musi-cal.mojam.com:80")
&gt;&gt;&gt; conn.request("POST", "/cgi-bin/query", params, headers)
&gt;&gt;&gt; response = conn.getresponse()
&gt;&gt;&gt; print response.status, response.reason
200 OK
&gt;&gt;&gt; data = response.read()
&gt;&gt;&gt; conn.close()
</pre></div>
