reading href in a loop from python code

You can look up the HTMLParser

Here is an Example

from HTMLParser import HTMLParser

# create a subclass and override the handler methods
class MyHTMLParser(HTMLParser):
    a = 0
    def handle_starttag(self, tag, attrs):
        if tag == 'a':
            self.a = 1
            print 'name:', dict(attrs)['href'].split('/')[-1]
    def handle_data(self, data):
        if self.a == 1:
            print 'title:', data
    def handle_endtag(self, tag):
        self.a = 0

# instantiate the parser and fed it some HTML
parser = MyHTMLParser()
parser.feed('''
<div class="menu-item"> 
      <a class="menu-link" href="/dashboard/apple"> C-apple</a>
</div>
<div class="menu-item"> 
      <a class="menu-link" href="/dashboard/bench"> C-bench</a>
</div>
''')

And you run it you will get the output

name: apple
title:  C-apple
name: bench
title:  C-bench

thanks guys for the help and this solved my problem

{%for name, title in tuples:%}
   <div class="menu-item">
      <a class="menu-link" href="/dashboard/{{title}}">{{name}}</a>
   </div>
{%endfor%}
