如何修复AttributeError：'HTMLParserTreeBuilder'对象没有属性'initialize_soup'

Question

I am getting the following error:

AttributeError: 'HTMLParserTreeBuilder' object has no attribute 'initialize_soup'

I was trying to find the xpath for the checkbox of M in eBay ( link )

I am using spyder and I have imported bs4 everywhere I can.

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

web_page = requests.get('https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=mens+shirt&_sacat=0')
web_soup = BeautifulSoup(web_page.text, 'html.parser')
checkbox = soup.find(class_='cbx x-refine__multi-select-checkbox')
checkbox_names = checkbox.find_all('a')

for check in checkbox_names:
    print(check.prettify())

I was expecting an output like this

<a href="/web/20121007172955/https://www.nga.gov/cgi-bin/tsearch?artistid=11630">
 Zabaglia, Niccola
</a>

I was following this tutorial to help me with my code.

Answer 1

First, your soup.find(class_='cbx x-refine__multi-select-checkbox') is selecting actually only the first element with the class cbx x-refine__multi-select-checkbox

So to get the url to the "M Size Shirt", you could do the following:

CODE:

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup

web_page = requests.get('https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=mens+shirt&_sacat=0')
web_soup = soup(web_page.text, 'html.parser')
links = web_soup.find_all('a', {'class':'cbx x-refine__multi-select-link'})
for l in links:
    checkbox = l.find('input',{'class':'cbx x-refine__multi-select-checkbox '})
    if checkbox and 'M' == checkbox.get('aria-label'):
        #FOUND
        print(l.get('href'))

OUTPUT:

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=mens+shirt&_sacat=0&rt=nc&Size%2520%2528Men%2527s%2529=M&_dcat=185100
