A Python String Replace Problem - Googler - 2009-12-28

I use Python urllib.urlopen, and get the following web page code:

Code:
http:\u002F\u002Fm.wsj.net\u002Fvideo\u002F20091222\u002F122209ghosnturn\u00

2F122209ghosnturn_512x288.jpg

I want to replace "\u002F" with "/"
I tried

Code:
str.replace("\u002F", "/")#Failed

str.replace("\\u002F", "/")#Failed

str.replace(u"\u002F", "/")#Failed

str.replace(u"\\u002F", "/")#Failed

How can I replace "\u002F" with "/"?
Thanks a lot! Nerd

Try:

PHP Code:
str = u"http:\u002F\u002Fm.wsj.net\u002Fvideo\u002F20091222\u002F122209ghosnturn\u002F122209ghosnturn_512x288.jpg"
print str.decode("utf8")
