Appending HTML snippet to element

[Sam Sloniker]

I have a few hundred HTML files. I need to append the same HTML snippet to a certain element in each of them. (It's the first element with a certain class name.) I know how to select the element to append to, but how do you append HTML to an element? I see how to append text, or how to create an element in Python and append it, but not how to append HTML code.

I would suggest use bs4 to get elements

And convert them into string and create a new file that has parsed the entire page except that class element. When that element comes, add it with your code.
