Do you understand the syntax from a Python point of view?
No. That's the problem.

Which help file?
Well, maybe not a file, but the text produced by typing: help(BeautifulSoup)
There is a fairly good tutorial for Beautiful Soup here:
http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/documentation.html
Is that the one you meant?
Did you find the section "Searching By CSS class"?
If so we need more specific questionws about what you don't
understand.
If not, try reading it and then come back for more... :-)
