Python html2text文本问题

Question

i am using html2text for converting Html into text, but its also changing my text strings as well eg A&P to A&P;

how i can avoid this change

In [1]: import html2text

In [2]: conv = html2text.HTML2Text()

In [3]: conv.handle("string A&P string")
P
&P;
Out[3]: u'string A&P; string\n\n'

output should be

Out[3]: u'string A&P string\n\n'

Answer 1

It's because the string you convert has syntax error. & should be escaped in html language.

Try

out = conv.handle("string A&P string")
