I like the idea of picking up certain tags by default like title, meta tags, and then picking up h1, h2, etc. unless they have the lang="" attribute specified. Then it would be nice to pick up everything else that belongs to the class="translate". What u think? I am looking thru src of html2po and it appears that the primary fault is that it uses the horrible HTMLParser.py <a href="http://webunit.HTMLParser.py" target="_blank">webunit.HTMLParser.py</a> instead of something more sane like lxml or beautiful soup it may be easier to swap out HTMLParser for lxml than improve html2po on top of HTMLParser I will play w/ lxml and html2po to see what i can work out. re: beautiful soup vs. lxml . My heart is w/ lxml, enjoyed working w/ it before and seems to have better css selectors than beautiful soup. tks again for your help sayamindu! <div><div></div><div class="h5"> On Thu, 2009-07-02 at 16:54 +0530, Sayamindu Dasgupta wrote: > I did a little tweaking of html2po to get <a href="http://pastebin.be/19509" target="_blank">http://pastebin.be/19509</a> > The label tags need to be fixed - but apart from that I think the rest > of that is OK.
