This what my program should do, you give it the URL to a page and a
template file, it downloads that page and then using the template file it
returns some information.
The way I thought of doing it was that the template file uses regex and
then in my program I just do re.search(templ ate, htmlpage) and this would
work but the HTML document has characters like ? and * that I need to
escape in the template, so this solution doesn't work. What is a better
way to accomplish what I want? does Python have any standard library for
this?
The parsing has to be dynamic, from the template file, the URLs are not
fixed.
