`htmllib` | A parser for HTML documents.
`htmlentitydefs` | Definitions of HTML general entities.
`xml.parsers.expat` | An interface to the Expat non-validating XML parser.
`xml.sax` | Package containing SAX2 base classes and convenience functions.
`xml.sax.handler` | Base classes for SAX event handlers.
`xml.sax.saxutils` | Convenience functions and classes for use with SAX.
`xml.sax.xmlreader` | Interface which SAX-compliant XML parsers must implement.
