Hi there,
i'm trying to use PyXML to parse some XML files, and i get some odd =
behaviour.
using this code:
from xml.dom import core,utils
reader =3D utils.FileReader('c:\\TMLIntranet\\headlines\\headlines.xml')
doc =3D reader.document
Storage =3D ""
print "."
for n in doc.documentElement.childNodes:
if n.nodeType=3D=3Dcore.TEXT:
Storage=3DStorage+ n.nodeValue
=20
#print Storage
i get the following output:
[]
[]
[]
[]
[]
[]
[]
[]
[]
.
What is going on here? It seems that the utils.FileReader function is =
outputting these '[]'s to the screen when i run a file through it, but =
surely this is not intended?
Anyone know why this might happen and how i might fix it?
(I am using Python 1.52 (the version shipped with Zope 2.16) on Win =
2000.
I installed the PyXML module from the binary installer that was posted =
to this list a while back. Could it be that this build has debugging =
code in it or something?
Regards
-Pete
(please respond directly, as i only read the archives of this list)
