I have a strange bug in an xml file. I try to parse it with the following
script:
import cElementTree as ElementTree
##from elementtree import ElementTree
inputFile = "c:\Test0\\bug.xml"
tree = ElementTree.ElementTree()
tree.parse(inputFile)
root = tree.getroot()
iter = root.getiterator()
for element in iter:
print element.tag
The file is here:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
<DIV class="paragraph"
style=" padding:14.88pt 36.00pt 0.00pt 69.84pt; text-align:justify;">
<SPAN class="font8" style=" line-height:12.00pt;">It is should be
adapted on the fly and should be
<BR />
<SPAN style=" letter-spacing:0.50pt;">affected as minimal as
possible during
<BR /></SPAN>adaptation. Adaptation approaches are different
<BR />in the adaptation granularity (procedure, module,
<BR />
<SPAN style=" letter-spacing:-0.45pt;">(simplicity,</SPAN>
<SPAN style=" letter-spacing:-0.45pt;">duration,</SPAN>
<SPAN class="font1"> </SPAN>
<SPAN style=" letter-spacing:-0.45pt;">automation,</SPAN></SPAN>
</DIV>
I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\pywin\framework\scriptutils.py",
line 310, in RunScript
exec codeObject in __main__.__dict__
File "C:\Test0\FineReader\FixXml.py", line 7, in ?
text += gettext(e)
File "<string>", line 24, in parse
SyntaxError: not well-formed (invalid token): line 17, column 22
I can't understand why! I think my xml file is wrong (when I remove the
corresponding line, eveything is ok).
Can anydoby tell me where is the mistake ?
Thank you,
Bruno Lienard
