The error makes no sense to me.
try looking at the keys of the dict first level:
print newText.keys()
do you get the first key?

Hi,
when I did:
print newText["responseData"]["translatedText"]
I got this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "translate.py", line 5, in <module>
print newText["responseData"][0]
TypeError: string indices must be integers, not str
when I changed both brackets to 0 I got { as the output
when I did it this way:
Print response["responseData"]: ["translatedText"]
I got a syntax error.
Thanks
Storm

Hi,
Your output variable "newText" is a nested dictionary:
{"responseData": {"translatedText":"Hola, ¿cómo estás hoy?"},
"responseDetails": null, "responseStatus": 200}
So use the keys to get the translation:
print newText["responseData"]["translatedText"]
I assume the keys are always the same.

Hi,
Here's the output:
{"responseData": {"translatedText":"Hola, ¿cómo estás hoy?"},
"responseDetails": null, "responseStatus": 200}
Here's the part I need in this version of the program, if the text
variable changes, so does the required output:
Hola, ¿cómo estás hoy?
thanks

What other stuff are you getting?
What exactly does your program output in the print statement?

Hi,
I have written a small program to translate from english to another
language, in this instance, Spanish. The problem is, it returns some other
stuff that I don't need. How can I get just the translated text witout the
other stuff? I only want to use standard libraries and keep it as short as
possible. Thanks for the help. Here's the code:
import urllib
text = "hello, how are you today?"
languageCode = 'es'
newText =
urllib.urlopen("//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/language/translate?v=1.0&q=";
+ urllib.quote(text) + "&langpair=en|" + urllib.quote(languageCode)).read()
print newText
Thanks
Storm
