import libxml2dom # http://www.python.org/pypi/libxml2dom d = libxml2dom.parse("bookmarks.html", html=1) for node in d.xpath("html/body//dt/*[1]"): if node.localName == "h3": print "Section:", node.nodeValue elif node.localName == "a": print "Link:", node.getAttribute("href") One exercise, using the above code as a starting point, would be to reproduce the hierarchy exactly, rather than just showing the section names and the links which follow them. Ultimately, you may be looking for a way to just convert the HTML into a simple XML document or into another hierarchical representation which excludes the HTML baggage and details irrelevant to your problem.
