Thanks but I am way over my head with XML, Python. I am working with
DDMS and need to output the individual resource nodes to their own
file. I hope that this helps and I need a good example and how to use
it.
Here is what a resource node looks like:
<ddms:Resource
xsi:schemaLocation="https://metadata.dod.mil/mdr/ns/DDMS/1.4/
https://metadata.dod.mil/mdr/ns/DDMS/1.4/";
