::sigh:: I'm having some trouble with the new Google Groups interface. It seems to double post, and in this case didn't post at all. If it did already, I apologize. I'll try to figure out what's happening, or just switch to a real newsgroup program.

Anyway, my question was about Beautiful Soup. I read on the doc page that BS uses a parser, which html.parser and lxml are. So I'm guessing the difference between them is that the parser is a little more "low level," whereas BS offers a higher level approach to using them? Is BS easier to write code with, while still using the power of lxml?
