• Paypal date formatting: what is "HH:MM:SS DD Mmm YY, YYYY PST"?

  - by MTsoul

  I'm looking at the Paypal IPN docs, and it says the datetime stamps of their strings are formatted as: HH:MM:SS DD Mmm YY, YYYY PST So year is specified twice? Once in double digits, and another with 4 digits? This looks bizarre.

• Embed Text File in a Resource in a native Windows Application

  - by MTsoul

  I have a C++ Windows program. I have a text file that has some data. Currently, the text file is a separate file, and it is loaded at runtime and parsed. How is it possible to embed this into the binary as a resource?

• BeautifulSoup, but for CSS?

  - by MTsoul

  BeautifulSoup parses HTML and offers various ways to manipulate and search within HTML. Is there something similar for CSS? Specifically, I'd like to know if a given HTML text is rendered as bold. Either it has an ancestor that is the <strong> or the <bold> tag (which can be done with BeautifulSoup), or it has an ancestor (or itself) that has CSS attributes with font-weight: bold. Is this possible without resulting to writing my own library?

• Concise way to getattr() and use it if not None in Python

  - by MTsoul

  I am finding myself doing the following a bit too often: attr = getattr(obj, 'attr', None) if attr is not None: attr() # Do something, either attr(), or func(attr), or whatever else: # Do something else Is there a more pythonic way of writing that? Is this better? (At least not in performance, IMO.) try: obj.attr() # or whatever except AttributeError: # Do something else

• Intercept keystrokes to a window

  - by MTsoul

  Is it possible to intercept a keystroke (and characters) sent to a window? By intercept, I mean play man-in-the-middle, instead of having just hooks onto the Window. I'd like to filter (i.e. eliminate some keystrokes) keystrokes to a window.

• Javascript (and HTML rendering) engine without a GUI for automation?

  - by MTsoul

  Are there any libraries or frameworks that provide the functionality of a browser, but do not need to actually render physically onto the screen? I want to automate navigation on web pages (Mechanize does this, for example), but I want the full browser experience, including Javascript. Thus, I'd like to have a virtual browser of some sort, that I can use to "click on links" programmatically, have DOM elements and JS scripts render within it, and manipulate these elements. Solution preferably in Python, but I can manage others.

• STL map containing references does not compile

  - by MTsoul

  The following: std::map<int, ClassA &> test; gives: error C2101: '&' on constant While the following std::map<ClassA &, int> test; gives error C2528: '_First' : pointer to reference is illegal The latter seems like map cannot contain a reference for the key value, since it needs to instantiate the class sometimes and a reference cannot be instantiated without an object. But why does the first case not work?
