    <p>I have been tinkering with the following script:</p> <pre><code># -*- coding: utf8 -*- import codecs from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup, NavigableString, UnicodeDammit import urllib2,sys import time try: import timeoutsocket # http://www.timo-tasi.org/python/timeoutsocket.py timeoutsocket.setDefaultSocketTimeout(10) except ImportError: pass h=u'\u3000\u3000\u4fe1\u606f\u901a\u4fe1\u6280\u672f' address=urllib2.urlopen('http://stock.eastmoney.com/news/1408,20101022101395594.html').read() soup=BeautifulSoup(address) p=soup.findAll('p') t=p[2].string[:10] </code></pre> <p>with the following output:</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p>print t</p> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p>¡¡¡¡ÐÅϢͨ</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p>print h</p> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p>　　信息通</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p>t</p> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p>u'\xa1\xa1\xa1\xa1\xd0\xc5\xcf\xa2\xcd\xa8'</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p>h</p> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p>u'\u3000\u3000\u4fe1\u606f\u901a'</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p>h.encode('gbk')</p> </blockquote> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p>'\xa1\xa1\xa1\xa1\xd0\xc5\xcf\xa2\xcd\xa8'</p> <p>Simply put: When I pass in this html through BeautifulSoup, it takes the gbk encoded text and thinks that it is unicode, not recognizing that it needs to be decoded first. "h" and "t" should be the same, however, as h is just me taking the text from the html file and converting it manually.</p> <p>how do I solve this problem?</p> <p>best</p> <p>wheaton </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
