Beautiful Soup's select(~) method returns a list of all the tags that match a particular criteria.
Examples
Consider the following HTML document:
my_html = """<div> <p id="alex">Alex</p> <p>Bob</p> <p id="cathy">Cathy</p></div>"""soup = BeautifulSoup(my_html, "html.parser")
To return a list of all the <p> tags under <div>:
soup.select("div p")
[<p id="alex">Alex</p>, <p>Bob</p>, <p id="cathy">Cathy</p>]
