So ... are you writing as you read? If so, I'm not sure you can know which form to write out immediately. Best bet would be to delay write until the next SAX event. The next SAX event will tell if the element should be written as <element /> or <element>. --David -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
