How do you add a tag to a Beautiful Soup object?

A new tag can be created by calling BeautifulSoup's inbuilt function new_tag(). Inserting a new tag using the append() method : The new tag is appended to the end of the parent tag.

What function in Beautiful Soup will remove a tag from the HTML tree and destroy it?

decompose() removes a tag from the tree of a given HTML document, then completely destroys it and its contents.

See my answer to a previous question along the same lines:

  • Extract all <script> tags in an HTML page and append to the bottom of the document

The following should insert just fine:

soup.body.insert(len(soup.body.contents), yourelement)
