i am on mac os x 10.8, using the integrated python 2.7. i try to learn about tkinter with tutorials like this [this video] for python 2.7 (explicitly not 3) they propose the following code: from tkinter import * import tkinter.messagebox however, this brings up the error: ImportError: No module named tkinter using import.Tkinter with a capital t seems to work, but further commands like import Tkinter.messagebox don't (neither does tkinter.messagebox). I've had this problem with lots of tutorials. what's the thing with the capital / non-capital "T", and how do i get my python to work like it does in the tutorials? Thanks in advance!
Cites user3725561 · 2014-07 · Stack Overflow · on “Python: Tkinter button function and urllib2”
Alright so I am following this [this video] tutorial on Python GUIs with Tkinter . My code is below and everything works fine. However this is not accurate since the program doesn't do what I actually need. In the GUIs box I want the user to be able to provide a link that will then be used from urllib2 to grab some links from the web and then open them via the drop-down menu of my GUI. So far, the link that the user is supposed to provide is hard-coded into the source and the button does pretty much nothing. So what I need here is to be able to connect the my button with response = urllib2.urlopen ? Any thoughs on that? Thanks a lot. import urllib2 from Tkinter import * #import tkinter.messagebox
Cites user4350786 · 2015-05 · Stack Overflow · on “Python GUI Constructor”
I'm new to Python, but not to programming. In this tutorial [LINK] , the author initializes a constructor in his class like so: class simpleapp_tk(Tkinter.Tk): def __init__(self,parent): Tkinter.Tk.__init__(self,parent) I understand it, and you do the same in C#, and Java. However, in this tutorial [this video] , why doesn't the author do the same? He only initializes the application. Like this: app = Tk() In what situation would I do the second over the first? Which in your opinion is better?
