I'm using ParsedXML. When it came time to arrange to edit XML directly I simply delegated the function to the same mechanism used by the ZMI. Works just fine. BUT... when I added the XML editing, some of the traversal mechanisms which walk the tree suddenly began to fail when I had modified an XML document. Now, a ParsedXML document consists of a DOCUMENT node which references the XML document properly. The DOCUMENT node contains the meta-information about the doucment. Afer editing, the DOCUMENT node has disappeared and only the XML tree remains. This is true for both my system and for edits via the ZMI. Is this a feature or a bug? I'm using ParsedXML 1.2.1 with Zope 2.50. A quick check of the bug list for ParsedXML doesn't mention any problem like this. -dra
