Is there any pakage or module handling html document like beautiful
soup?
Try "http://code.google.com/p/html5lib/";.
That's supposed to be a parser which complies with the HTML 5 specification,
including its rules for handling bad HTML.

why don't you *use* beautiful soup? It is a module...
Or lxml, which works a bit better than BF 3.1 (post parser change)
