[Zope] HTML parsers and Wget like function

[Grant Morganryuuguu]

I am considering Zope/python for a project and would like to get some pointers to see if this is a reasonable fit.
I need to get a URL from the web, parse the HTML ,extract some data from the page, rewrite the <a href> tags and display it on the website.
I found the HTML parser in library http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/markup.html and
http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/ (which is down now but was up a couple of days ago)
does anyone have any other suggestions for manipulating HTML in Zope/python.
For getting the the page from a URL is there something like Wget (unix program) in Zope for this - I searched around the manual but did not see anything.

Thanks,
Grant
