SGML parsing

[Zubin Mithra]

Hey everyone,

I was trying to port feedparser over to Python3.1 and I realized that
sgmllib had been deprecated from Python2.7 upward and subsequently removed.
Which alternatives would you suggest I use in Python3.1 to perform analogous
tasks?

Thanks,
zm

Hi Zubin,

I don’t know about 3.1, but in 3.2 the html.parser module has very
recently received improvements to make it more lax when needed, with
Beautiful Soup cited as example:

Apart from that, people say that lxml is the new Beautiful Soup.

Cheers
