Hi list, I have a very simple SAX script from which I get results like 'Title1:Description','Title2:Description'. I want to split each result on the colon, using the two resulting elements as key/value pairs in a dictionary. I've tried a couple different approaches with lists etc, but I keep getting an 'IndexError: list index out of range' when I go to split the results. Probably an easy fix but it's my first hack at SAX/XML. Thank you!
