Hi, I am new to Python, trying to learn it by carrying out specific tasks. I want to start with trying to scrap the contents of a web page. I have downloaded Python 3.3 and BeautifulSoup 4.
If I call upon urlopen in any form, such as below, I get the error as shown below the syntax: Does urlopen not apply to Python 3.3? If not then what;s the syntax I should be using? Thanks so much. import urllib from bs4 import BeautifulSoup soup = BeautifulSoup(urllib.urlopen("http://www.pinterest.com")) Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Seema\workspace\example\main.py", line 3, in <module> soup = BeautifulSoup(urllib.urlopen("http://www.pinterest.com")) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'urlopen'
