Vote count:

soup        = BeautifulSoup(html)
boxes       = soup.findAll("div", { "class" : re.compile(r'\bmixDesc\b') })

I think I got only boxes of class 'mixDesc'.

So I'm debugging to be sure

for box in boxes :
    print "box"
    print box

I've only 10 divs with mixDesc class in the parsed html file

But I got 30 boxes and a lot (20 out of 30) are printed as

[]

Can you explain why this happens? Why findAll grab this empty tags ? Or ... What else mistake have I take ?
