How to set proxy for a python script to run

[Adam]

Hi, everyone, I am using /usr/share/system-config-language/
language_gui.py in Python.
For some reason I have to bypass the firewall using a proxy. I read
the urllib reference and set http_proxy="my proxy". But it didn't
work. Is there anyway that we can set the proxy?

I did sth. like this:

proxy_url = "http://user:pass@proxy .yourproxy.org: 8080"
proxy_support = urllib2.ProxyHa ndler({'http': proxy_url})
opener = urllib2.build_o pener(proxy_sup port)
urllib2.install _opener(opener)
src = urllib2.urlopen (url)

now you can easily read from src.
