[FIXED] BeautifulSoup: How to get the document element from a tag?

Issue

It just is possible to create a new tag using the Document object. How do I create a new tag if I just have a tag?

def bold(tag):
  b = tag.new_tag('b') # no new_tag method here
  tag.wrap(b)

Solution

All elements have the parents generator, just get the last one:

def bold(tag):
  b = list(tag.parents)[-1].new_tag('b') # find root element
  tag.wrap(b)
