How to remove line breaks in beautifulsoup?

<p>
    First line of output.<br\>
    This is the second line.<br\>
</p>

With bs.find('p').text I'm getting this output:

    First line of output.
    This is the second line.

I want to remove <br> tags and I want to get an output like First line of output. This is the second line. I tried replacing \n, \r\n with a space but nothing has changed. How can I solve it?

You can simply run "replace" on the string.

s = "<p>First line of output.<br\>This is the second line.<br\></p>"
s.replace("<br\>", "")

will delete all tags "<br>" and then run replace("\n", "") on the same string
