I wrote an HTML/XHTML parser which is available at http://oregonstate.edu/~barnesc/htmldata/ . It's straightforward: it just converts HTML to a list of dictionaries: >>> htmldata.tagextract('<tr><td>foo<tr a=5>') [('tr', {}), ('td', {}), 'foo', ('tr', {'a': '5'})] It's meant to handle "real" HTML, like a browser, and not like the other Python HTML parsers I tried (which balk at even slightly malformed input). It can also convert the list data structure back to HTML, for filtering/mirroring/proxy reasons. And it can extract/modify URLs in HTML/XHTML/CSS. - Connelly Barnes
