delete from pattern to pattern if it contains match

[Joaquin Alzola]

I put some code I did before for the xmlns:

                              xml_root = ET.ElementTree(ET.fromstring(xml_decoded)).getroot()
                              for elem in xml_root.getiterator():
                                             if('{http://request.messagepush.interfaces.comviva.com/xsd}shortCode'==elem.tag):
                                                            shortCode = (elem.text).rstrip()
                                             if('{http://request.messagepush.interfaces.comviva.com/xsd}text'==elem.tag):
                                                            send_text = (elem.text).rstrip()
                                             if('{http://request.messagepush.interfaces.comviva.com/xsd}item'==elem.tag):
                                                            subscribers = (elem.text).rstrip()
                              result_sms = send_sms(subscribers,shortCode,send_text)

Reuse it.

I don't know what this does, but probably not what you expected.

I think you have to specify the namespace:

for servlet in root.findall('{http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee}servlet'):
    servletname = servlet.find(
        '{http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee}servlet-name').text

>         if servletname == "controller":

You could have added a print statement to verify that the line below is executed.
