(This may also be why the tree builder doesn't +support SoupStrainers, but I think that has more to do with the fact +that the html5lib tree builder is constantly rearranging the tree, and +will crash if something it parsed earlier didn't actually make it into +the tree.) -* In BS3, "soup.aTag" is the same as 'soup.find("a")'. This lets you -locate a tag called (let's say) "find" with attribute -access. "soup.find" won't do what you want, but "soup.findTag" will. - -This still works In BS4 but it's deprecated.
