Edit Question
Title
Body
I'm trying to get the elements in an HTML doc that contain the following pattern of text: #\S{11} <h2> this is cool #12345678901 </h2> So, the previous would match by using: soup('h2',text=re.compile(r' #\S{11}')) And the results would be something like: [u'blahblah #223409823523', u'thisisinteresting #293845023984'] I'm able to get all the text that matches (see line above). But I want the parent element of the text to match, so I can use that as a starting point for traversing the document tree. In this case, I'd want all the h2 elements to return, not the text matches. Ideas?
