Is this what you want?
pys = 'This string contains two times - end'
pyprint s.replace('&nbs p;', ' '*6)
This string contains two times - end
see http://docs.python.org/lib/string-methods.html

Also various modules that are meant to deal with web and xml and such
have functions to do such operations.

Re: How to convert "&nbsp ;" in a string to blank space?
Oh, I didn't make myself clear.
What I mean is how to convert a piece of html to plain text bu keep as
much format as possible.
Such as convert " " to blank space and convert <brto "\r\n"

http://docs.python.org/lib/module-HTMLParser.html, like
#!/usr/bin/env python
from HTMLParser import HTMLParser
parsedtext = ''
class Parser(HTMLPars er):
def handle_starttag (self, tag, attrs):
if tag == 'br':
global parsedtext
parsedtext += '\\r\\n'
def handle_data(sel f, data):
global parsedtext
parsedtext += data
def handle_entityre f(self, name):
if name == 'nbsp':
pass
x = Parser()
x.feed('An text<br>')
print parsedtext

dealing with this specific XML/HTML entity, you can do
text = text.replace("& nbsp;", " ")
or
text = text.replace("& nbsp;", chr(160))
to handle arbitrary entities and character references, pass the data
through an HTML or XML parser, or use something like:

SE can also strip tags and translate all HTM escapes and generally lets
you do ad hoc translations in seconds. You just write them up, make an
SE object from your text an run your data through it. As simple as that.
If you wish further explanations, I'll be happy to explain.
