What do you mean exactly? Do you want to manipulate the HTML document in the browser while displaying it or do you want to change an in-memory representation of a HTML document (read from and written to a file again perhaps)? The former would have to be done with JavaScript and you should probably ask on a JavaScript list how to do this (though I'd highly recommend you look at the MochiKit JavaScript library <http://mochikit.com/>). For the latter, you could parse the HTML into a DOM representation and then use DOM methods to add and change Nodes in it. There are several libraries in Python that allow you to do so. A recent favourite with the Python community is ElementTree <http://effbot.org/zone/element.htm>, though you might have to clean up the HTML input a little bit before you feed it into ElementTree (e.g. with BeautfulSoup <http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/>.
