Parsing xml file using python

[Georgy]

There's standard xml modules with built-in SAX2 parser.

And the code you're looking for will be like this (not tested):

import sys
from xml.sax import make_parser, handler
class BodyOnly(handler.ContentHandler):
  def characters( self, content ):
    print content,
parser = make_parser()
parser.setContentHandler(BodyOnly())
parser.parse( "input.xml" )

| Hello, all,
|
| I am new to Python.
|
| I need to read an XML document and ignore all XML tags and write only
| those between the tags to a text file.  In other words, if I have an
| XML document like so:
|
| <tag1>This</tag1>
|     <tag2>is</tag2>
|        <tag3>a</tag3>
| <tag1>test</tag1>
|
| I need to write "This is a test" to a text file.  How do I achieve
| this?    Thanks.
