Hi,
Actually I want to fetch some text from a HTML Page and then display it using KPanelApplet.I am using BeautifulSoup for Parsing the HTML Page which I can do easily in Python . Now I don't want to switch to C++ because Parsing there will be tough. Can you suggest me some other way to do this.

Thank You
