Hi Guys,

I'm using 4suite API and I know that I can't access to my element using this document's method.

To be able to do that, I use minidom. I have a xml file and a dtd file where I'm declaring which attivutes are considered as IDs. 

Here is the code to create the document:

import xml.dom.minidom
	file = "xml file path name"
	doc = xml.dom.minidom.parseString(open(file).read()) 
	print	doc.getElementById('myid')



I'm getting None as result. Any body has an Idea why?

Here is the sction of the DTD for the declaration:

<!ATTLIST ndp
	id ID #REQUIRED
	version CDATA #REQUIRED
>

Thanks

Kamel
