Error while executing url lib in python

Question

I am getting error while executing below line:

print urllib.urlopen('http://'+dns+'/password?passwd='+PASSWORD).read

Error:

IOError: ('http protocol error', 0, 'got a bad status line', None)

However, it's working fine with webbrowser.open_new

Why are you using urllib instead of Requests? Also that method you're using is depreciated https://docs.python.org/2/library/urllib.html#high-level-interface — Natecat, Sep 27 '15 at 19:05

.read just references the method name. Try calling it, by adding paranthesis:

.read()
