html — HyperText Markup Language support¶Source code: Lib/html/__init__.py
This module defines utilities to manipulate HTML.
Convert the characters &, < and > in string s to HTML-safe
sequences. Use this if you need to display text that might contain such
characters in HTML. If the optional flag quote is true (the default), the
characters (") and (') are also translated; this helps for inclusion
in an HTML attribute value delimited by quotes, as in <a href="...">.
If quote is set to false, the characters (") and (') are not
translated.
Added in version 3.2.
Convert all named and numeric character references (e.g. >,
>, >) in the string s to the corresponding Unicode
characters. This function uses the rules defined by the HTML 5 standard
for both valid and invalid character references, and the list of
HTML 5 named character references.
Added in version 3.4.
Submodules in the html package are:
html.parser – HTML/XHTML parser with lenient parsing mode
html.entities – HTML entity definitions
