Question

I have a xml like this:

<link>
www.link1.com
</link>
<link>
www.link2.com
</link>

I have tried this code:

from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulStoneSoup 
soup = BeautifulStoneSoup(results2)     #Beautiful Soup
linklist = soup.findAll('link')
print soup

Using this code, the output is

[<link>www.link1.com</link>,<link>www.link2.com</link>]

But I want an output like this

[www.link1.com, www.link2.com]

Answer 1

Have you tried:

linklist = [el.string for el in soup.findAll('link')]
