I want to parse my iTunes Library xml. All was well, until I unplugged and left for the train (where I get most of my personal projects done). All of a sudden, I discovered that apparently the presence of a DOCTYPE in the iTunes XML makes xml.dom.minidom insist on accessing the Internet... So suddenly I was unable to do any work.
I don't want to modify the iTunes XML; iTunes rewrites it too often. How can I prevent xml.dom.minidom from dying when it can't access the Internet? Is there a simpler way to read the iTunes XML? (It's merely a plist, so the format is much simpler than general XML.) -Wm -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
