使用正则表达式删除 html 标签

Question

Im trying to get rid of the HTML tags, to an extent it works, but not all the tags are removed. But the below mentioned tags aren't gone

print('NOT DEALT WITH:')
for body in not_dealt_with_list:
#p = re.compile(r'<.*?[\\t\\n\\r\\s]*?.*?>')
    print(remove_tags(body))
    #print(p.sub('', body))
    #body = re.sub()

def remove_tags(content):
parser = lxml.html.HTMLParser(remove_comments=True, 
remove_blank_text=True)
document = lxml.html.document_fromstring(content, parser)
return document.text_content()

Answer 1

it looks like what you're trying to remove is embedded into a html comment (because it doesn't look like html there). Html comments start with and that's what you have to search for.

Try this regex to search for everything inside a comment to replace it afterwards over multiple lines

<!--(.|\n)*?-->

Let me know how it works out!
