It should be instantiated passing it a host and optional port number. If no port number is passed, the port is extracted from the host string if it has the form ``host:port``, else the default HTTP port (80) is - used. When True, the optional parameter *strict* causes ``BadStatusLine`` to + used. When True, the optional parameter *strict* (which defaults to a false + value) causes ``BadStatusLine`` to be raised if the status line can't be parsed as a valid HTTP/1.0 or 1.1 status line. If the optional *timeout* parameter is given, blocking operations (like connection attempts) will timeout after that many seconds |
