第 8 章 HTML 处理

8.1. 概览

我经常在 comp.lang.python 上看到关于如下的问题: “ 怎么才能从我的 HTML 文档中列出所有的 [头|图像|链接] 呢？” “怎么才能 [分析|解释|munge] 我的 HTML 文档的文本，但是不要标记呢？” “怎么才能一次给我所有的 HTML 标记 [增加|删除|加引号] 属性呢？” 本章将回答所有这些问题。

下面给出一个完整的，可工作的 Python 程序，它分为两部分。第一部分，BaseHTMLProcessor.py 是一个通用工具，它可以通过扫描标记和文本块来帮助您处理 HTML 文件。第二部分，dialect.py 是一个例子，演示了如何使用 BaseHTMLProcessor.py 来转化 HTML 文档，保留文本但是去掉了标记。阅读文档字符串 (doc string) 和注释来了解将要发生事情的概况。大部分内容看上去象巫术，因为任一个这些类的方法是如何调用的不是很清楚。不要紧，所有内容都会按进度被逐步地展示出来。

例 8.3. `dialect.py` 的输出结果

运行这个脚本会将第 3.2 节 “List 介绍” 转换成模仿瑞典厨师用语 (mock Swedish Chef-speak) (来自 The Muppets), 模仿埃尔默唠叨者用语 (mock Elmer Fudd-speak) (来自 Bugs Bunny 卡通画) 和模仿中世纪英语 (mock Middle English) (零散地来源于乔叟的《坎特伯雷故事集》)。如果您查看输出页面的 HTML 源代码，您会发现所有的 HTML 标记和属性没有改动，但是在标记之间的文本被转换成模仿语言了。如果您观查得更仔细些，您会发现，实际上，仅有标题和段落被转换了；代码列表和屏幕例子没有改动。
