Looks like you already didn't take the good advice to use an HTML parser. > I want to expand the program to give some output which the user can interact > with, e.g. 'which of this information do you want me to get?' and the user > would choose. Does anyone have any tips on this? Can I just use things like > raw_input and lists? I'd advise against that, although this obviously depends on the type of users you expect. Likely, you'd rather want a) a command line interface so that you can also use it from other scripts (look at the optparse module for that), and b) a suitable module API so that you can use the code from other Python modules. Try to make your code reusable by splitting it into separate functions and classes, and move it out of the top module level.
