Thanks. What would the code look like? I tried the code below, and got the
same results.
for item in soup.find_all(class_='lister-list'):
for link in item.find_all('a'):
#print(link)
z = str(link)
text_file = open("C:/Users/rshuell001/Desktop/excel/Text1.txt", "wb")
text_file.write(z + "\n")
text_file.close()
