Beautiful Soup's find_all_next(~) method returns tags that come after the current tag. This method takes in the exact same parameters as find_all(~).
If no parameter is specified, then all tags will be returned.
Examples
Basic usage
Consider the following HTML document:
my_html = """ <p id="alex">Alex</p> <p>Bob</p> <p id="cathy">Cathy</p>"""soup = BeautifulSoup(my_html, "html.parser")
To find all tags that come after Alex's tag:
p.find_all_next()
[<p>Bob</p>, <p id="cathy">Cathy</p>]
To find all tags with id="cathy" after Alex's tag:
p.find_all_next(id="cathy")
[<p id="cathy">Cathy</p>]
Case when parent is not shared
A common source of confusion is when we have the following HTML document:
my_html = """ <div> <p id="alex">Alex</p> </div> <p>Bob</p>"""soup = BeautifulSoup(my_html, "html.parser")
Here, Bob's tag does not share the same parent as Alex's tag. Calling find_all_next(~) on Alex's tag yields:
p = soup.find(id="alex")p.find_all_next()
[<p>Bob</p>]
Notice how find_all_next(~) returns tags that come after the current tag in the HTML document.
