Hello. I've only done a litte bit of parsing with minidom before but I'm
having trouble getting my values out of this xml. I need the latitude and
longitude values in bold.
I don't see anything 'bold' in your mail, but your example tells me what
data you mean.
Here is some untested code using xml.etree.cElementTree:
import xml.etree.cElementTree as ET
tree = ET.parse("thefile.xml")
for tag in tree.getiterator("location"):
print tag.findtext("lat"), tag.findtext("lng")
Note that cElementTree is both faster and simpler than minidom.
