AFAIK, things haven't changed. Things you might be interested to know 1. There is a module in PyXML, called javadom, that layers python semantics on top of various Java DOM implementations. 2. I submitted a patch that extends that support to JAXP, although the patch has not yet been folded into the main jython repo. I think I really need to submit the patch to PyXML. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=876821&group_id=12867&atid=312867 3. It should not be too complex to develop a binding for the excellent Jaxen "universal xpath engine", which could provide PyXML compatible xpath support under jython. http://www.jaxen.org > I see ElementTree promises one in the future but are there any out now? Not yet, although I could be wrong. -- alan kennedy ------------------------------------------------------ email alan: http://xhaus.com/contact/alan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
