环境：python3.7+ lxml4.4.4
因为etree是C语言写的，所以在import时，不会有提示，直接输入即可
from lxml import etree
-
在使用etree.parse时报错，原因：该方法默认使用的是“XML”解析器，所以如果碰到不规范的html文件时就会解析错误
htmlElement = etree.parse('renren.html')

解决办法：
自己创建html解析器，增加parser参数
parser = etree.HTMLParser(encoding='utf-8')
htmlElement = etree.parse('renren.html', parser=parser)
etree很多方法不会提示，直接手动输入即可：
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
