Question

No matter what I try, “i” always stays as “1”. I am trying a add “1” to “i” each time it goes to the next file containing “1Chr” in the folder.

python

for name in glob.glob('*.html'):
  i = 1
  with open(name) as k:
    content = k.read()
    if '1Chr.'+str(i)+'.' in name:
      book = name.split('.')[0].upper().rstrip()
      x=open('final/'+book+'.SFM', 'a')
      x.write(content)
      i += 1
      x.close()    

Answer 1

Place the i = 1 above your for loop.
For every new file, you are resetting i to be one, so it can’t go beyond 2.
