Beautifulsoup findAll returns an empty list

Question

I'm trying to scrape a webpage using beautifulsoup, but findAll() returns an empty list. This is my code:

URL = "https://elcinema.com/en/index/work/country/eg?page=1"
r = requests.get(URL) 

bsObj = BeautifulSoup(r.content, 'html5lib') 
 
recordList = bsObj.findAll('a', attrs = {'class':"lazy-loaded "})

print(recordList)

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

According to the question, it looks like you need to find all a records who have img tag in it with a specific class lazy-loaded Follow the below code to get those:

Code:

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

URL = "https://elcinema.com/en/index/work/country/eg?page=1"
r = requests.get(URL)
bsObj = BeautifulSoup(r.content, 'html.parser')
outputdata=[]
recordList = bsObj.findAll('a')
for record in recordList:
    if record.find("img",{"class":"lazy-loaded"}):
        outputdata.append(record)
print(len(outputdata))
print(outputdata)

Output:

Let me know if you have any questions:)

Answer 2

you need to find img tags with a class lazyloaded

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
URL = "https://elcinema.com/en/index/work/country/eg?page=1"
r = requests.get(URL) 

bsObj = BeautifulSoup(r.content, 'html') 
 
recordList = bsObj.findAll('img',class_="lazy-loaded")
recordList =[i['data-src'] for i in recordList ]


print(recordList)

Output:
