I'm curious whether is it possible to get next sibling only when is there some in the same level.

<font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="2"><b>Current:</b>
        90
        <b>Increment : </b> 5<br>
        <b>End Date/Time : </b>06/08/2015 21:00<br>
        <b>Last Made at : </b><font size="1"><br></font>
<font ....

So the point is that sometimes there is a text after Last Made at : </b> but sometime there is not.

I do this:

soup.find('b',text='Last Made at : ').next_sibling

The problem is that if there is not another sibling after </b> tag, it returns some data from another <font> tag which I don't want.

I know that it would be possible to use font.contents but in my case would be the better option something like 

`tag.next_sibling_in_the_same_level_or_None`

I didn't find the option so I'm asking whether is there something which could help me in this case.

  • In the HTML snippet posted, *there is* another sibling after `` tag. Notice that `
    ` is located at the same level as ``.     – har07 Aug 04 '15 at 05:37

is the last you do not want? if so see these. infact, the last is the sibling of the .you can prettify and print ,and you will see.

<font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="2">
 <b>
  Current:
 </b>
 90
 <b>
  Increment :
 </b>
 5
 <br>
  <b>
   End Date/Time :
  </b>
  06/08/2015 21:00
  <br>
   <b>
    Last Made at :
   </b>
   <font size="1">
    <br/>
   </font>
   **<font>
    not need
   </font>**
  </br>
 </br>
</font>

if you html is 

<font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="2"><b>Current:</b>
        90
        <b>Increment : </b> 5<br>
        <b>End Date/Time : </b>06/08/2015 21:00<br>
        <b>Last Made at : </b><font size="1"><br></font>  
**</font>**
<font ....

then,i think you will not get the last .
