You can refine your search to only find those divs with a given class using BS3:
mydivs = soup.find_all("div", {"class": "stylelistrow"})
ANSWER 2
Score 447
From the documentation:
As of Beautiful Soup 4.1.2, you can search by CSS class using the keyword argument class_:
soup.find_all("a", class_="sister")
Which in this case would be:
soup.find_all("div", class_="stylelistrow")
It would also work for:
soup.find_all("div", class_="stylelistrowone stylelistrowtwo")
ANSWER 3
Score 82
Update: 2016 In the latest version of beautifulsoup, the method 'findAll' has been renamed to 'find_all'. Link to official documentation
Hence the answer will be
soup.find_all("html_element", class_="your_class_name")
ANSWER 4
Score 24
Specific to BeautifulSoup 3:
soup.findAll('div',
{'class': lambda x: x
and 'stylelistrow' in x.split()
}
)
Will find all of these:
<div class="stylelistrow">
<div class="stylelistrow button">
<div class="button stylelistrow">
