0. There is an XML parser in the python standard library (package xmllib, you find it in the python documentation), there also exist alternative xml parsers. 1. Take a look at www.xml-rpc.com, you find a lot of iternnformation there. 2. check out the xmlrpclib by Frederic Lundh (it comes also with Zope, look in the lib/python/xmlrpclib.h) 3. in the xmlrpclib.py you can see how the xml parser is used 4. there are several how-to's at zope.org concerning xml-rpc - just serch zope.org for 'xmlrpc' good luck phil *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 05.10.2000 at 10:52 Frederic Quin wrote:

Hi all,

I would like to create a python method which take a parameter xml_string and return a dictionary containing all tags, values and attributes. I know that it exists some modules for xml conversions but I don't know very much how to use them. I am novice in Python so it's a little bite difficult for me to understand the codes...

Thanks

Fred
