I'm attempting to read an XHTML 1.1 file[1], perform some DOM manipulation,
then write the results to a different file.
I've found myself rather stuck at the first hurdle.
I have the following:
from xml.dom.ext.rea der import Sax2
reader = Sax2.Reader()
f = open('dorward.m e.uk/sitemap.html', 'r')
doc = reader.fromStre am(f)
(dorward.me.uk/sitemap.html being a local copy of http://dorward.me.uk/sitemap.html)
.... which outputs the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "x.py", line 4, in ?
doc = reader.fromStre am(f)
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/_xmlplus/dom/ext/reader/Sax2.py",
line 372, in fromStream

raise exception
xml.sax._except ions.SAXParseEx ception: http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modulariz...s-1.mod:115:0:
error in processing external entity reference
I'm not sure where I should proceed from here. Is it a bug in my code? In
PyXML? In the DTD itself? What should I do next?
Thanks.
[1] Actually, lots of files, but one at a time.

I think you need a parser import xml.sax
parser = xml.sax.make_pa rser()
file = "dorward.me .uk/sitemap.html"
parser.parse (file)
How furder I don't now, I'am stuck to!
Try the 'http://pyxml.sourcefor ge.net/topics/howto/xml-howto.html'site .

The bug is with the W3C. Through a chain of parameter entity refs, it http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd references http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modulariz...11-model-1.mod,
which gives 404 (and yes XML heads, it is in an INCLUDE section so the
URI must be traversed unless there's a resoltion through pubID).
I'm actually rather amazed at such carelessness by the W3C, but I
don't have time to dig further to see if I can figure out how things
got broken.
I can tell you that you can use minidom or OK with this because it
does not even read the external DTD subset: from xml.dom import minidom
doc = minidom.parse(' sitemap.html')
doc
<xml.dom.minido m.Document instance at 0x400635ec>
Also, 4Suite's cDomlette makes it easy for you to avoid the DTD
problem:
from Ft.Xml.Domlette import NoExtDtdReader
doc = NoExtDtdReader. parseUri("file: sitemap.html")
doc
<cDocument at 0x0x403ab42c>

Good luck.

Hi all,
I have a DOM tree which is implemented by glib N-ary tree. I serialize

Thanks in advance.

Hi There,
Can someone please tell me why the XML spec states that an attribute
value with an external entity is forbidden? Or point me to the
appropriate document? Or better still, perhaps you know of a work
around?
It is a little frustrating that the normally powerful external
entities are limited in this fashion.
Example (myextent.txt contains just one word without a CR):

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
