Usually in Python you use one of the helper methods to get a specific <link> element out. If you look in the documentation, for example:
http://code.google.com/apis/picasaweb/developers_guide_python.html You'll notice "GetEditLink()" used on the entry objects to return that entry's edit link. What is an edit link? Well, to answer that you should read up more on the Data APIs and AtomPub: http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/overview.html Cheers, -Jeff On Tue, May 5, 2009 at 9:37 AM, hector...@gmail.com <hector...@gmail.com>wrote: > > Hi, > > Looking for a way to obtain URL information of an album, I found that > AlbumEntry objects contains a list of links.
