In fact you must initialize the handler before parsing the xml doc and
it should work.

Hello,
The following is an example which works for me to count opening tags
in a xml doc,
if it can help:
# -*- coding: iso-8859-1 -*-
import sys
from xml.parsers.expat import ParserCreate
n = 0
def start_element(name, attrs): # callback declaration
global n
n += 1
parser = ParserCreate() # création du parser
parser.StartElementHandler = start_element # initialization
parser.ParseFile(file(sys.argv[1])) # get the input file
print '%d opening tags' % n

xml strings and so far it looks like the xml.parsers.expat is the way
to go but I'm not quite sure how it works.
