Regarding image scrapping

#1

i cannot find find the article tag…its directly showing the div class

Hey @Lockhart, didn’t understand your question, could you please share the screenshot.

#3

In the video 'article tag ’ is available on the wesite.
now as the website is updated ,its no longer showing ‘article tag’.
image
its only showing <div class and the children.

now my doubt is …may be its a silly one…
when i’m creating soup object i.e. article_element=soup.findAll(‘WHAT SHOULD I WRITE HERE’ )??
i tried div ,but its not showing anything.
hope you’ll get …what i am trying to say…

Hey @Lockhart, now i understand your question, actually the html file of the website keeps on changing. This is the reason mentor’s code is no longer working.

Anyways now there are two way out:

  1. The easiest hack is to us elements = soup.findAll(‘img’), and find all img tags directly and see manually by printing all elements which belong to quotes or which belong to background image or any other image.

  2. The more logical way is to use,

div = soup.findAll('div',attrs = {'class' :'col-6 col-lg-3 text-center margin-30px-bottom sm-margin-30px-top'})

because i noticed that all 32 quotes have this class attribute the same value. so i used that to get those 32 elements only.

Hope this resolved your doubt.
Plz mark the doubt as resolved in my doubts section. :blush:
