Re: Enumerating ordered expat attributes with tuplets?

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi Andy, by the looks of it I'd say that the problem is that the second parameter you passed to start_element is not a dictionary at all (the clue is in the "AttributeError: 'LIST' object" ...). >>> d = ['tree', 'house'] >>> start_element("Thin

Re: newbie question

Hi sharon, the problem is here that a = 12,123 will actually create a tuple with two elements (namely 12 and 123): >> a = 12,123 >> a (12, 123) Converting this to a string yields '(12, 123)', which is not what you want (sounds confusing, bit soon you'll see how many amazing things can be don
