Hi @KrisTomura

First, your getUrl function doesn't return anything. It should return the provided url.

Then you are trying to convert the input url directly. I'm pretty sure you would prefer to fetch the page content first :)

And finally, html2text.html2text(html) returns the text directly. Here is your working script:

import urllib.request
import html2text

def get_url():
    return str(input("Enter Url: "))

def get_content(url):
    return urllib.request.urlopen(url).read().decode("utf-8", "ignore")

url = get_url()
html = get_content(url)
text = html2text.html2text(html)

print(text)
