This lets you -locate a tag called (let's say) "find" with attribute -access. "soup.find" won't do what you want, but "soup.findTag" will. - -This still works In BS4 but it's deprecated. I could make -"soup.find_tag" work the same way as "soup.find('find')", but I don't -think it's worth it. - -CDATA ------ - -The elementtree XMLParser has a strip_cdata argument that, when set to -False, should allow Beautiful Soup to preserve CDATA sections instead -of treating them as text. Except it doesn't. (This argument is also -present for HTMLParser, and also does nothing there.) - -Currently, htm5lib converts CDATA sections into comments. An -as-yet-unreleased version of html5lib changes the parser's handling of -CDATA sections to allow CDATA sections in tags like <svg> and -<math>. The HTML5TreeBuilder will need to be updated to create CData -objects instead of Comment objects in this situation. |
