Hi everyone,
I am using urllib to scrape an HTML page, and creating an instance of
BeautifulSoup as follows:
*
*from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
import re, urllib
doc = urllib.urlopen("
http://weather.za.msn.com/local.aspx?wealocations=wc:SFXX0010&q=Cape+Town%2c+Western+Cape
").read()
soup = BeautifulSoup(''.join(doc))
#print soup.prettify()
weather_row = soup.findAll('tr', class="rs1")
print weather_row
The call to soup.findAll is failing because "class" is a reserved keyword in
Python. Using BeautifulSoup, how can I find a specific table row whose only
identifying attribute is its CSS class?
Thanks.
