UsageCustomizationDiagrams


Usage

  1. Make sure you have BeautifulSoup installed. You can install it using pip:
pip install beautifulsoup4
  1. Prepare your input HTML file and place it in the same directory as the script.
  2. Run the script:
python shorten.py

The script will read the input.html file, remove all <span> tags (for demonstration purposes), and write the modified HTML content to output.html.

Customization

To modify the HTML shortening logic, open the shorten.py file and edit the following section:

python shorten.py

Shorten the HTML

For example, remove certain tags or attributes

For demonstration purposes, let's remove all tags

for span_tag in soup.find_all('span'):
span_tag.unwrap()  # Remove the <span> tags while keeping the content
