Question

I wrote following python code:

import urllib2

url= \'http://www.example.com\'
page = urllib2.urlopen(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup         


        

Answer 1

You're missing a tiny bit of code:

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib2

url= 'http://www.example.com'
page = urllib2.urlopen(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.read(), 'html.parser')
freq = soup.find('div', attrs={'id':'frequenz'})
print freq.string  # Added .string
