<p>How can I retrieve the page title of a webpage (title html tag) using Python?</p>

I'll always use
lxml
for such tasks. You could use
beautifulsoup
as well.
```
```
import lxml.html
t = lxml.html.parse(url)
print(t.find(".//title").text)
```
```
EDIT based on comment:
```
```
from urllib2 import urlopen
from lxml.html import parse

url = "https://www.google.com"
page = urlopen(url)
p = parse(page)
print(p.find(".//title").text)
```
```
