Hi Welcome u,
Old is Gold
Take the old beautiful soup It works fine but new soup has some problem with unicode and string.
sorry If i confused you.
Now for sometime I have been working on the parsing html data in python.For this operation we have the standard module called “BeautifulSoup“.When I was working with this suddenly i have faced the problem “HTMLParserError” after i got to go google.
It says that
“you r using the new BeautifulSoupSome modifications has been done on the new soup module that is the parsing is happening from html rather to use lxml.”
So, again I asked the version to find my soup.
again it says politely,
“navatux@localhost$python
>>>import BeautifulSoup
>>>BeautifulSoup.__version__”
>>>”"” Here you need to notice the output .ie Version
So, I did the same thing and I got the number 3.1.7
again I conducted him.
It says,
“Try to install the version 3.0.1a” will be somewhat good.
Again i need to follow that.
I did it downloaded the exact version and installed(3.0.1a) after uninstalled the old one(3.1.7).
Reference:
Now it works fine. 
If i face any new issue let you know
bye
