PyTidyLib is a Python package that wraps the HTML Tidy library. This allows you, from Python code, to “fix” invalid (X)HTML markup. Some of the library’s many capabilities include:
- Clean up unclosed tags and unescaped characters such as ampersands
- Output HTML 4 or XHTML, strict or transitional, and add missing doctypes
- Convert named entities to numeric entities, which can then be used in XML documents without an HTML doctype.
- Clean up HTML from programs such as Word (to an extent)
