Python BeautifulSoup give multiple tags to findAll

Question

I'm looking for a way to use findAll to get two tags, in the order they appear on the page.

Currently I have:

import requests
import BeautifulSoup

def get_soup(url):
    request = requests.get(url)
    page = request.text
    soup = BeautifulSoup(page)
    get_tags = soup.findAll('hr' and 'strong')
    for each in get_tags:
        print each

If I use that on a page with only 'em' or 'strong' in it then it will get me all of those tags, if I use on one with both it will get 'strong' tags.

Is there a way to do this? My main concern is preserving the order in which the tags are found.

Answer 1

You could pass a list, to find any of the given tags:

tags = soup.find_all(['hr', 'strong'])
