I have managed to pull out most of the various attributes of a site I am scraping, but have come short trying to extract the value of something within the div declarator itself.
Specifically, assuming the following:
<div class="item" data-color="red" data-itemid="abc">Red Slippers</div>
I am after the value inside data-itemid > abc.
I cannot seem to get something that isn't looking at the value inside the div: i.e. Red Slippers, which is not what I am after.
I have tried the following, without luck:
item_id = soup.find('data-itemid')
Any ideas?
