Hi,
I am writing on a small XML parser and are currently stuck as I am not
able to get the whole element name in ElementTree.
Please see the below example where "print root[0][0]" returns
"<Element 'Activity' at 018A3938>"
Is there a way to get hold of the "Running" string in the tag using
elementTree?
<Activities>
<Activity Sport="Running">

For those of you that know how to program XML I have another
question:
I am currently "hardcoding" my XML parser using brackets, is this a
good approach or should I build it using a "search on tag" approach.
What do you mean by that - hardcoding by brackets?

Indeed, my current approach has been to hardcode the XML parser using
brackets. Is there a more elegant way?
I am parsing a garmin xml file from a handheld GPS and as you can see
in the below script, I am hardcoding each node:
As you don't give an actual example of how the XML looks like, it's hard
to tell. But under the assumption that the tag-names are not generic,
I'd certainly go for
root.find("tagname")
instead. That's much clearer, and you don't rely on an actual order of
elements.
