I used urllib to get html stuff, then used gluon.html TAG for the filtering jQuery style. Here are some of problems I encountered while using the TAG from though: 1. I needed to reencode the string to utf-8 cause it was throwing errors if its not proper utf8 - maybe this should be automated? 2. I also throw an error when there is something like '<scri'+'pt>' which is found on google analytics, so I just stripped out all script tags. 3. There are malformed html, without closing tags or something - this one was difficult, I didn't think if it is internally supported to get fixed so I had to google and find out if there are built stuff to fix it and I found BeautifulSoup.prettify() which will fix it - maybe this should also be built in TAG() cause TAG is so awesome, I can do everything in DOM very easily.
