Greetings.
I want to append instructions for XSLT without converting an XML object
to string.
Is there a solution for doing so, yet?
This code:
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
e_feed = ET.Element("feed")
e_feed.set("xmlns", "http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom";)
xslt_reference = ET.ProcessingInstruction(
"xml-stylesheet",
"type=\"text/xml\" href=\"stylesheet.xsl\"")
e_feed.insert(0, xslt_reference)
Would yield this result:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom";>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xml" href="stylesheet.xsl"?>
</feed>
Yet, the intended resukt is:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xml" href="stylesheet.xsl"?>
<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom";>
</feed>
That is, the instruction should be above element "feed".
Please advise.

ET.ElementTree(e_feed).write("chathappy.atom", encoding="unicode",
xml_declaration=True)
Thank you.
