13.1.1 Example HTML Parser Application

As a basic example, below is a very basic HTML parser that uses the `HTMLParser` class to print out tags as they are encountered:

    from HTMLParser import HTMLParser

    class MyHTMLParser(HTMLParser):

        def handle_starttag(self, tag, attrs):
            print "Encountered the beginning of a %s tag" % tag

        def handle_endtag(self, tag):
            print "Encountered the end of a %s tag" % tag
