Should I also move the url_type part, then?

TIL lxml has awful trees.
How would the solution that adds the extra div tag look? I don’t think we would really mind one little <div> there. Or worst case scenario, if we know the <div> is guaranteed to always be there, we could slice it out.
The extra <div></div> is produced by lxml.html.tostring(doc, encoding='utf-8', method='html').
I don't really like cutting stuff out via text replacements.

Please rewrite this as a 4-line if/else tree instead of abusing str.format. We should also find out what that asterisk changes (can non-fragment code work without it? Does it reach all <img> and <source> elements if the asterisk is not present?
It doesn't reach top-level <img> tags with the asterisk there. I think (I don't know the xpath syntax well enough to be sure) that the asterisk eats up a top level element, and then it looks for children (or children-of-children etc.) of that top element.
What about no asterisk and full document? (Please rewrite in 4 lines anyway) done
I think that should work as well, since there are no top-level <img> or <source> elements which have to be handled differently. I've changed it accordingly, which removes the whole if/else.
(The original syntax was introduced in 24a45e1.)

I don't understand what this does. Doesn't it end up producing 2 copies of the doc's text?
doc.text is all the text in doc that appears before a HTML element. Text that appears after HTML elements is taken care of by tostring(). (lxml is weird.)
I added some comments with a similar explanation, hope it makes it clearer.

One more thing I had to try out after seeing that |
|
The one test fails because there were some connection problems to pypi while installing doit. All other tests had no problems. |
|
Those tests are pretty worthless anyways. |
|
Ok. And thanks for the approval. Anyone mind if I merge? |
|
Go ahead. |
