In case minidom is not a requirement, you can use lxml.etree: >>> import lxml.etree as et >>> finditems = et.XPath("//tb:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:visible = 'false']", {'tb' : "http://openoffice.org/2001/toolbar"}) >>> tree = et.parse("myfile.xml") >>> for toolbaritem in finditems(tree): ... toolbaritem.set( ... "{http://openoffice.org/2001/toolbar}visible", "true") http://codespeak.net/lxml/ Stefan _______________________________________________ XML-SIG maillist - XML-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/xml-sig
