HTML doesn't really have "lines" it is just a stream of text that can be formatted with line end characters to make it somewhat easier for humans to read. Parsers probably won't give you any line numbers. What is the use case for this (e.g. why do you think you need the line numbers)? Extraction is done using tags not line numbers. All that said, you should look at Beautiful Soup module before continuing. -Larry -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
