You want to iterate through the result of split():

>>> from string import *
>>> def acro(phrase):
...     result = ""
...     for word in split(phrase):
...             result += word[0].upper()
...     return result
... 
>>> acro("hello python how are you")
'HPHAY'

I'm a Python newbie so there may be 100 different and better ways to do acronyms, but there's my take at least.

I suggest not erasing your original post in case someone ever reads the thread again, that way they can see what people were responding to.
