Ok im tring to code this dictionary search program.. but its not fully working for me from what i see if the url has an = sign then it wont work it will just open a regular explorer window.. now it i was to remove it.. then my progrom works and it will be transferring to the url does anyone knows why??? this only happends on windows.. tested it on linux and works like a charm.. here is the part of my code that its messing up on windows..

Code:
search = self.entry.get()
		os.system("explorer http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&q="+search)

:confused:

Mmm this isnt how i'd choose to get the contents of a webpage X, you should look at the urllib module i.e.

Code:
import urllib

param = urllib.urlencode({'sourceid': 'navclient', 'q': seach})
page = urllib.urlopen('http://www.google.com/seach', params)

print page.read(), page.info() #more data available


Its a little longer i'll give you but it is very cross platform and of course Pythonic.. this wont work with google since they've blocked automated systems

But use PyGoogle, its easy to use! it gives you allot more controle than your gonna get using urllib and regex!

This is a bad idea from a security standpoint too
Code:
search = self.entry.get()
os.system("explorer http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&q="+search)

At the very minimum, you should urlencode search, otherwise people can input something like:
bogus; rm -rf /
