I'm trying the script below, and it simple writes the last line to a text file.
I want to add a '\n' after each line is written, so I don't overwrite all the
lines.
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib2
var_file = urllib2.urlopen("http://www.imdb.com/chart/top";)
var_html = var_file.read()
var_file.close()
soup = BeautifulSoup(var_html)
for item in soup.find_all(class_='lister-list'):
for link in item.find_all('a'):
print(link)
text_file = open("C:/Users/rshuell001/Desktop/excel/Text1.txt", "wb")
z = str(link)
text_file.write(z + "\n")
text_file.write("\n")
text_file.close()
Can someone please help me get this working?
Thanks!!
