note that you're trying to inherit from a module. the error message could need some work... something like from elementtree.ElementTree import ElementTree, tostring class AcidTree(ElementTree): def write_string(self): return tostring(self) should work better. </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
