I would remove children from body at the same time they're copied into newdiv. (This whole thing appears to be harder than one would expect at first) import xml.etree.cElementTree as ET source = """<html><head><title>Test</title></head><body lang="en"> original contents... 2&3 <a href="hello/world">some text</a> <p>Another paragraph</p> </body></html>""" tree = ET.XML(source) body = tree.find("body") newdiv = ET.Element('div', {'class':'remapped'}) for e in list(body.getchildren()): newdiv.append(e) body.remove(e) newdiv.text, body.text = body.text, '' newdiv.tail, body.tail = body.tail, '' body.append(newdiv) ET.dump(tree) -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
