from what i remember it's a bit of an odd book: it should be titled "using pyxie (I think that was the name)", which is the authors XML library that converts XML to/from a simplified text format so you can leverage normal text processing tools. There's a review on ibm.com/xml somewhere, which said the library was buggy, I think too you will find some python/xml articles there.
Oreilly python/xml was more conventional: DOM/SAX etc. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Will Ganz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sun, 3 Oct 2004 20:38:14 -0500 To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: XML Library from "XML Processing with Python" > The book "XML Processing with Python" comes with a companion CD that has > several programs on it for Python 1.5.2.
