Beautiful Soup's replace_with(~) method replaces a tag or string in an element with the provided tag or string.

Examples

Consider the following HTML document:

my_html = """
   <p>Alice</p>
"""
soup = BeautifulSoup(my_html)

To replace the text "Alice" with "Bob":

p_tag = soup.find("p")
p_tag.string.replace_with("Bob")
p_tag
<p>Bob</p>

Here, we're tapping into the string property available to all Tag objects.
