How doesn't it work? `No module named mechanize`? – Tim May 28 '14 at 07:06

What was the output of `pip install mechanize`? Did it succeed? – Tim May 28 '14 at 07:06

there were some syntax error messages while it was being installed but finally it said `successfully installed` – honeysingh May 28 '14 at 07:08

1Can you verify if `pip list` outputs mechanize, and can you show us what happens when you try to import mechanize – Tim May 28 '14 at 07:11

`pip list` shows `mechanize(0.2.5)` in the list – honeysingh May 28 '14 at 07:12

From mechanize FAQ :
Which version of Python do I need? Python 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, or 2.7. Python 3 is not yet supported.
But you could have a look to this other recent post from SO I get an error in python3 when importing mechanize if you want to test the version in developpement for python3.
By the way, did you try googling "mechanize python3" before asking on SO ?

If you have both python 2.X.Y and 3.z on your machine you will also have both pip and pip3 you may have installed machanize for python 2 rather than python 3.
Try:
pip3 install mechanize
