opening files from a website
<p>I asked a similar question yesterday but I included some code that basically took my question on a different tangent than I had intended.  So I shall try again.</p>

<p>I am rewriting a python script that crawls a website to find a few hundred text files, I have no interest in any content of the text file beyond the second line of the file.  Previously I would download all of the files then loop through them all to extract the second line.  I would now like to open each file as my script discovers it, grab the second line, and close it without downloading to my harddrive then opening it.  </p>

<p>So basically is there a way I can open a file that is at www.example.com/123456.txt and take the second line from that file copy it to an array or something without downloading it and then opening it.</p>
