Python●Beautiful Soup

Example

Consider the following HTML document:


        
        
            
                
                
                    my_html = "<p>Alex</p>"
soup = BeautifulSoup(my_html)

To append two strings to the content of our p tag:


        
        
            
                
                
                    p_tag = soup.find("p")
p_tag.extend([" Bob", " Cathy"])
print(p_tag)
                
            
            <p>Alex Bob Cathy</p>

WARNING

This method is only available for Beautiful Soup 4.7.0 and upwards.
