Python Basic - 1: Exercise-117 with Solution

Write a Python program to make a request to a web page, and test the status code, and display the HTML code of the specified web page.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import requests
url = 'http://www.example.com/'
headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0'}
request = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
print("Web page status: ", request)
print("\nHTML code of the above web page:")
if request.ok:
    print(request.text)

Sample Output:

Web page status:  <Response [200]>

HTML code of the above web page:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Example Domain</title>

    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <style type="text/css">
    body {
        background-color: #f0f0f2;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
        
    }
    div {
        width: 600px;
        margin: 5em auto;
        padding: 2em;
        background-color: #fdfdff;
        border-radius: 0.5em;
        box-shadow: 2px 3px 7px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.02);
    }
    a:link, a:visited {
        color: #38488f;
        text-decoration: none;
    }
    @media (max-width: 700px) {
        div {
            margin: 0 auto;
            width: auto;
        }
    }
    </style>    
</head>

<body>
<div>
    <h1>Example Domain</h1>
