During webscraping I am getting the following error "invalid syntax (, line 11)" in python 3.4.4 where print commad is written

Question

I am writing this code to web scrape but I am continuously getting this error invalid syntax on the line "print(post)".

import urllib.request
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as b
url_base="https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw="
requests="ps4"
url_separator="&_sacat=0&_pgn="
page_num="1"
url=url_base + requests + url_separator + page_num 
html= urllib.request.urlopen(url).read()
soup = b(html,'html.parser')
for post in soup.find_All("li",{"class":"s-item"}):
print(post)

I am using python 3.4.4. Your help would be very much appreciated.

`find_All` should be `find_all`; also your indentation as posted is wrong. — Endre Both, Mar 17 '19 at 17:57
I have changed to find_all but still having the same error.. What do you mean by indentation? — Hassan Sultan, Mar 17 '19 at 18:20
Indentation is part of the Python syntax. It is basically the first thing you learn in every Python course. — Klaus D., Mar 17 '19 at 18:22
E.g. [here](https://www.python-course.eu/python3_blocks.php). — Endre Both, Mar 17 '19 at 18:23
I have tried to fix the indentations but the error still persists, can it be the fault of my python version?? — Hassan Sultan, Mar 17 '19 at 18:52

You need to fix indentation of the print(post) line and use find_all function:

for post in soup.find_all("li",{"class":"s-item"}):
  print(post)
