ElementTree is my choice too. It is simple and easy to use though a bit bare-bones. It has a C implementation that is very fast and can cope with very large files (e.g. 25MB). For a broader perspective and many examples, check out Uche Ogbuji's articles on xml.com. He has written several survey articles of available tools. http://www.xml.com/pub/au/84 In truth, I haven't found a Python XML library that IMO comes close to dom4j in power and ease of use. It's one of the reasons I still use Jython. lxml looks promising but it is not available on Windows so I haven't tried it. http://www.dom4j.org http://codespeak.net/lxml/ Kent _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
