I am having issues with running the script on my html folder. It fails on the first class file with the output Error: 'Comment' object has no attribute 'parent' (File: xyz.html). This is even after removing all comments in that html file. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hi robbel, which versions of BeautifulSoup and Python are you using ?

It may be related to this bug in BeautifulSoup 4.3.2. Apparently, it was fixed in BeautifulSoup 4.4.0 (bugfixes). So you can try upgrading BeautifulSoup :

pip install --upgrade beautifulsoup4
