my code

Spoiler:

class AdvancedUserRecipe1282101454(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title = 'The TMZ'
    __author__ = 'TonytheBookworm'
    description = 'Celeb Gossip and News'
    publisher = 'The TMZ'
    category = 'news, celebrity, USA'
    oldest_article = 1
    max_articles_per_feed = 100
    no_stylesheets = True
    remove_javascript = True
    
    extra_css = '''
                    h1{font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-weight:bold;font-size:large;}
                    h2{font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-weight:normal;font-size:small;}
                    p{font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small;}
                    body{font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:small;}
		        '''
    
    
   
              
                  
                  
    feeds          = [
                       ('TOP 20', 'http://www.tmz.com/rss.xml'),
                       ('Exclusives', 'http://www.tmz.com/category/exclusives/rss.xml')
                    ]

    def print_version(self, url):
       print_url = url +'print'
       print 'print_url is: ', print_url
       return print_url

I also am using the the test you gave me of
ebook-convert tmz.recipe output_dir --test -vv > myrecipe.txt

I don't really see any errors in there and I also don't see the print_url is: ... either
Sorry to bug you I will get it one of these days.

I ran your code. It puts these in the output file:

print_url is:  http://www.tmz.com/2010/08/18/tmz-seinfeld-uncle-leo-crank-call-police-burbank-kim-kardashian-facebook/print
print_url is:  http://www.tmz.com/2010/08/25/mel-gibson-extortion-case-oksana-grigorieva-domestic-violence-sheriff-district-attorney-investigation/print

AFAICT, it's working perfectly. I even tested one of those links, and it works, too. What do you think is busted?
