Thanks for all the replies to my inquiry about creation of documents from scratch using the DOM.
I've rewritten my document "Python and the XML DOM" to conform to the way the Python 2.3 xml.dom.minidom module wants you to use factory methods: see section 6, `Creating a document from scratch' in this document: http://www.nmt.edu/tcc/help/pubs/pyxml/ Also included in this document is a module that makes document creation more Pythonic. It is described in section 7 of the document, and section 8 contains a "literate programming" presentation of the code of the new module. I would greatly appreciate any comments.
