In Beautiful Soup, two NavigableString or Tag objects are considered to be equal if the underlying HTML is identical.
Example
Consider the following HTML document:
my_html = "<p>I am a <i>cat</i>. Are you a <i>cat</i>?</p>"soup = BeautifulSoup(my_html)
Here, we have two identical tags: <i>cat</i>
. Let's fetch them and test for equality:
print(cat_one == cat_two)
True
The key is that, even though they are two separate objects, they are still deemed equal since they both represent <i>cat</i>
.
