I want to extract attribute from within a HTML tag using beautifulsoup. How to do it ?
For Example:
<div class="search-pagination-top clearfix mtop "> <div class="row"><div class="col-l-4 mtop pagination-number" tabindex="0" aria-label="Page 1 of 15 "><div>Page <b>1</b> of <b>15</b> </div></div> How do I get text from "aria-label" attribute ?
I tried using select() but it didn't help.
You can extract the attribute value just like a dictionary. Using the key aria-label
Ex:
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup html = """<div class="search-pagination-top clearfix mtop "> <div class="row"><div class="col-l-4 mtop pagination-number" tabindex="0" aria-label="Page 1 of 15 "><div>Page <b>1</b> of <b>15</b> </div></div> """ soup = BeautifulSoup(html, "html.parser") print( soup.find("div", class_="col-l-4 mtop pagination-number")["aria-label"] ) Output:
Page 1 of 15
