xml parser script

hello,

im absolutely new to python, but i have to parse an xml file.
i saw that there are already some modules inside python that could do that. but i dont know which one to use and how?

how do i for example open the xml file itself?

can someone post a short sample script to do the parsing maybe?

thanks a lot!

Hi Grumble,

Not really gonna be able to offer much help here not ever having used Python with XML before, but can u sugest you take a look at the Python column on xml.com, if your looking for examples I'd look there.

Have fun,

Just to add, you should also probably check out the Python Special Interest Group for XML.
