altering html and saving html doc - python-3.x

Question

Been working on this for a while now, but maybe i am just searching the wrong thing to get the answers i need.
I have a dictionary whose keys are specific words i would like to find in a web page. I would then like to highlight those words and save the resulting HTML into a local file.
EDIT: It occurred to me later that people my like to execute the code themselves. This link includes the word dictionaries and the HTML of the page I am using to test my code as it should have the most matches of any of the pages i am scanning. Alternately you can use the actual website. the link would replace rl[0] in the code.
try:
#rl[0] refers to a specific url being pulled from a list in another file.
req = urllib.request.Request(rl[0],None,headers)
opener = urllib.request.build_opener(proxy_support, urllib.request.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))
resp = opener.open(req)
soup = BeautifulSoup(resp.read(),'html.parser')
resp.close
except urllib.error.URLError:
print("URL error when opening "+rl[0])
except urllib.error.HTTPError:
print("HTTP error when opening "+rl[0])
except http.client.HTTPException as err:
print(err, "HTTP exception error when opening "+rl[0])
except socket.timeout:
print("connection timedout accessing "+rl[0])
soup = None
else:
for l in [wdict1,wdict2,wdict3,wdict4]:
for i in l:
foundvocab = soup.find_all(text=re.compile(i))
for term in foundvocab:
#c indicates the highlight color determined earlier in the script based on which dictionary the word came from.
#numb is a term i defined earlier to use as a reference to another document this script creates.
fixed = term.replace(i,'<mark background-color="'+c+'">'+i+'<sup>'+numb+'</sup></mark>')
term.replace_with(fixed)
print(soup, file=path/local.html)
the issue i am having is that when the soup prints it prints the entire paragraph for each word it finds and does not highlight. alternately i can say:
foundvocab = soup.find_all(text=i)
and the resulting HTML file is blank.

Answer 1

ok. the below code finds and replaces what i need. now i just have display issues with the greater than and less than symbols which is a different problem. thank you to those that spared the time to take a look.
foundvocab = soup.findAll(text=re.compile('{0}'.format(i)), recursive=True)
for fw in foundvocab:
fixed_text = fw.replace('{0}'.format(i), '<mark background-color="'+c+'">'+i+'<sup>'+numb+'</sup></mark>')
fw.replace_with(fixed_text)
