python - Problems with navigablestrings and unicode in BeautifulSoup -

-

i having problems navigablestrings , unicode in beautifulsoup (python).

basically, parsing 4 results pages youtube, , putting top result's extension (end of url after youtube.com/watch?=) list.

i loop list in 2 other functions, on one, throws error: typeerror: 'navigablestring' object not callable. however, other 1 says typeerror: 'unicode' object not callable. both using same exact string.

what doing wrong here? know parsing code not perfect, i'm using both beautifulsoup , regex. in past whenever navigablestring errors, have thrown in ".encode('ascii', 'ignore') or str(), , has seemed work. appreciated!

    url in urls:         response = urllib2.urlopen(url)         html = response.read()         soup = beautifulsoup(html)         link_data = soup.findall("a", {"class":"yt-uix-tile-link result-item-translation-title"})[0]         ext = re.findall('href="/(.*)">', str(link_data))[0]         if isinstance(ext, str):             exts.append('http://www.youtube.com/'+ext.replace(' ',''))

and then:

    ext in exts:         description = description(ext)         embed = embed(ext)

i added isinstance() lines try , see problem was. when 'str' changed 'unicode', exts list empty (meaning strings, not unicode (or navigablestrings?)). i'm quite confused...

description = description(ext) replaces function string after first iteration in loop. same embed.

here (probably) simple problem: i'm trying use perceptual hashing library phash ubuntu 11.10. had ffmpeg installed, way i've done: sudo apt-get install libphash0 sudo apt-get install libphash0-dev then tried compile program: #include <iostream> #include <phash.h> using namespace std; int main() { ulong64 myhash=0; ph_dct_imagehash("test.jpg", myhash); cout<<myhash<<endl; } when compiling, prints out: undefined reference `ph_dct_imagehash' any suggestion? should do? in advance! matteo monti you forgot link phash library, linker cannot find function. try adding -l phash gcc command line (or update makefile). if doesn't work, maybe you'll need specify library path (the location of *.a file) using -l "/usr/lib/"
