<a href="#" class="tip" rel="
Principal Name - S. BALKAR SINGH
Mobile No. - 8146611008
Email ID - gsssdhapaiasr@gmail.com
" style="user-select: text;">View Contact Details<span
class="caret"></span></a>
Principal name, mobile number and email id are the contents I'm interested in. When I specify soup.find('a', {'class':'tip'})
it gives me only "View Contact Details".
Is there a way to extract contents within rel
?
rel
is attribute so you have to use ['rel']
- ie. soup.find('a', {'class':'tip'})['rel']
Working example
data = '''<a href="#" class="tip" rel="
Principal Name - S. BALKAR SINGH
Mobile No. - 8146611008
Email ID - gsssdhapaiasr@gmail.com
" style="user-select: text;">View Contact Details<span
class="caret"></span></a>'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(data, 'html.parser')
item = soup.find('a', {'class':'tip'})
print('text:', item.text)
print(' rel:', item['rel'])
print(' rel:', ' '.join(item['rel']))
Result:
text: View Contact Details
rel: ['', 'Principal', 'Name', '-', 'S.', 'BALKAR', 'SINGH', 'Mobile', 'No.', '-', '8146611008', 'Email', 'ID', '-', 'gsssdhapaiasr@gmail.com', '']
rel: Principal Name - S. BALKAR SINGH Mobile No. - 8146611008 Email ID - gsssdhapaiasr@gmail.com
BS
for rel
returns list, not one string, because Multi-valued attributes
EDIT: to get table with data you have to send POST
request with all data which normally send browser to server - it means data in form, it can be even empty string but server has to receive form fields.
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0'}
# form fields send to server
params = {
'SchoolType': '',
'Dist1': '',
'Sch1': '',
'SearchString': ''
}
r = requests.post('http://www.registration.pseb.ac.in/School/Schoollist', headers=headers, data=params)
soup = BeautifulSoup(r.text, 'html.parser')
all_a = soup.find_all('a', {'class':'tip'})
for items in all_a:
print('text:', item.text)
print(' rel:', item['rel'])
print(' rel:', ' '.join(item['rel']))
print('-----')
Result:
