Hello,
I have an XML file that starts with:
<vortaro>
<art mrk="$Id: a.xml,v 1.10 2007/09/11 16:30:20 revo Exp $">
<kap>
<ofc>*</ofc>-<rad>a</rad>
</kap>
out of it, I'd like to extract something like (I'm just showing one
structure, any structure as long as all data is there is fine):
[("ofc", "*"), "-", ("rad", "a")]
How can I do it? I managed to get the content of boths tags and the
text up to the first tag ("\n "), but not the - (and in other XML
files, there's more text outside the elements).
Look for the "tail" attribute.
That gives me the last part, but not the one in the middle:
In : etree.tounicode(e)
Out: u'<kap>\n <ofc>*</ofc>-<rad>a</rad>\n</kap>\n'
In : e.text
Out: '\n '
In : e.tail
Out: '\n'
You need the text content of your initial element's children, which
needs that of their children, and so on.
