Hi. Looking at a file -->> http://www.marquette.edu/mucentral/registrar/snapshot/fall13/xml/BIOL_bysubject.xml
The file is generated via online/web url, and appears to be XML. However, when I use elementtree: document = ElementTree.parse( '/apps/parseapp2/testxml.xml' ) I get an invalid error : not well-formed (invalid token): I started to go through the file, to "remove" offending chars, but decided there has to be a better approach. I also looked at the underlying url/page to see what it's doing with the javascript to parse the XML. Anyone have any python suggestions as to how to proceed to parse out the data! thanks the javascript chunk :: var dsSnapshot = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("xml/BIOL_bysubject.xml", "RECORDS/RECORD"); dsSnapshot.setColumnType("nt", "html"); dsSnapshot.setColumnType("ti", "html"); dsSnapshot.setColumnType("new", "html"); dsSnapshot.setColumnType("se", "html"); dsSnapshot.setColumnType("mt", "html"); dsSnapshot.setColumnType("ex", "html"); dsSnapshot.setColumnType("in", "html"); _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
