fwiw, here's an ET snippet that inserts an anchor element inside
a paragraph element:
# from lxml.etree import * # or
# from cElementTree import * # or
from elementtree.ElementTree import *
p = XML("<p>a link and some <b>bold</b> text</p>")
a = Element("a", href="link")
text = p.text # "a link and some "
p.text = text[:2] # "a " is left after <p>
a.text = text[2:6] # "link" goes inside <a>
a.tail = text[6:] # " and some" goes after </a>
p.insert(0, a)
print tostring(p) # "<p>a <a href="link">link</a> and some <b>bold</b> text</p>"
(this works with ET, cET, lxml.etree, and any other ET-com-
patible library, of course)
