I have a page that looks like this:
Company A<br />
123 Main St.<br />
Suite 101<br />
Someplace, NY 1234<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Company B<br />
456 Main St.<br />
Someplace, NY 1234<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Sometimes there are two rather than three "br" tags separating the entries. How would I use BeautifulSoup to parse through this document and extract the fields? I'm stumped because the bits of text that I need are not contained in paragraph (or similar) tags that I can simply iterate through.

Step 1: The first step will be for scraping we need to import beautifulsoup module and get the request of the website we need to import the requests module. Step 2: The second step will be to request the URL call get method.
Does BeautifulSoup handle broken HTML? BeautifulSoup is a Python package that parses broken HTML, just like lxml supports it based on the parser of libxml2.
Beautiful Soup is a Python package for parsing HTML and XML documents (including having malformed markup, i.e. non-closed tags, so named after tag soup). It creates a parse tree for parsed pages that can be used to extract data from HTML, which is useful for web scraping.
You should look into the .stringsattribute found in tags, then use "\n".join() on that.
