Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. >Category: XML Group: Python 2.6 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Raymond Hettinger (rhettinger) Assigned to: Fredrik Lundh (effbot) Summary: Suggest a textlist() method for ElementTree Initial Comment: This patch has a implementation and example for a method to recursively extract prose from nested XML markup. This improves the utility of ElementTree for documents where otherwise contiguous PCDATA are broken-up by inspersed tags (e.g. xhtml or docbook fragments). See attached file or the ASPN recipe at http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/498286 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Fredrik Lundh (effbot) Date: 2006-11-29 11:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=38376 Originator: NO This is pretty much identical to the gettext and flatten helpers in the ElementLib utility library (see effbot.org for links and code). The current plan is to make some of these available as helper functions in ElementTree 1.3 (=Python 2.6), rather than methods. I'm leaving this open as a reminder to self. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v.
