Hi!
I'm trying to use BeautifulSoup for get data from a table (on right) from:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_states
i.e. i would get data from 'Calling code' that it would be '+1'
----------------------
import urllib2
from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_states"
html = urllib2.urlopen(url).read()
soup = BeautifulSoup()
soup.feed(html)
mainTable = soup.first('table')
rows = mainTable('tr')
any help here?
Thanks in advance
