Hi Titvirak,

You might want to take a look at a different module for parsing HTML.  A 
popular one is BeautifulSoup:

     http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/

Their quick-start page shows how to do simple stuff.  There are a few 
oddities with BeautifulSoup, but on the whole, it's pretty good.

Good luck to you!
