+  ``find_all()``.
+
+* ``AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'foo'`` - This
+  usually happens because you called ``find()`` and then tried to

+  ``find()`` didn't find anything, so it returned ``None``, instead of
+  returning a tag or a string. You need to figure out why your
+  ``find()`` call isn't returning anything.
