In [21]: s = '''<para role="success">1</para>''' In [22]: x = xml.dom.minidom.parseString(s) In [23]: print x.firstChild.firstChild.data 1 I doubt this really answers what you're really wanting to ask. And this is a really really brittle way of trying to parse XML. But it answers exactly what you're asking. Hope it gives you the start you need. Post a follow-up when you have more questions.
