13.1.1 Example HTML Parser Application
As a basic example, below is a very basic HTML parser that uses the HTMLParser class to print out tags as they are encountered:
from HTMLParser import HTMLParser
class MyHTMLParser(HTMLParser):
def handle_starttag(self, tag, attrs):
print "Encountered the beginning of a %s tag" % tag
def handle_endtag(self, tag):
print "Encountered the end of a %s tag" % tag
