Hi all, I have another problem with minidom and now it is really
critical.
Below the code that tryes to parse an well-formed xml, but it fails
with error message:
"not well-formed (invalid token): line 3, column 85"
from xml.dom import minidom
iMessage = "3c3f786d6c2076657273696f6e3d22312e30223f3e0a3c6d657373616\
7653e0a202020203c446174613e3c215b43444154415bd094d0b0d0bdd0bdd18bd0b5\

decode('hex')
iMsgDom = minidom.parseString(iMessage)
The "problem" within CDATA-section: it consists a part of utf-8
encoded string
wich was splited (widely used for memory limited devices).
When minidom parses the xml-string, it fails becouse it tryes to
convert
into unicode the data within CDATA-section, insted of just to return
the value
of the section "as is". The convertion contradicts the specification
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-cdata-sect
So my question still open:
How to get the value of CDATA-section with preserved all symbols
within? (perhaps use another parser - which one?)
Thanks for help.
