Quick Python question

[illfuuptn]

When I put in

from mechanize import browser

I get

     Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module>
    from mechanize import browser
ImportError: cannot import name browser

what am I doing wrong?

You do realize this forum struggles greatly to only barely serve its own purpose, let alone technical coding discussion.

"And now for something completely different..."

Oh, wrong Python.

[Salmon Steak]

the traceback is telling you what program file (pyshell#1) the error occured in, the line (1), and what line of code caused the error(from mechanize import browser). "Import error" is defining the reason, cannot import name browser. Don't know why. I am learning how to do python right now actually. If I read on how to help you more I will let you know. GL

here is a pro tip.

go to some programming forum, create a username like programminggirl or the like, and use a pink font. for an added bonus put some anime girl as your avatar and use <3s. next, tell them what your problem is, but be really detailed as to what you are looking for and how to program is to work.

those nerds will do the work for you and give you the result.

Try using "Browser" instead of "browser" -- python distinguishes upper/lower cases

No browser class, but there is a Browser class:
