Re: XML Parsing: Expat Error

Gerth, William D wrote:
Hey all, I’m simply trying to get my feet wet with XML parsing, and I
tried to just do something simple with ElementTree, just throw the XML
tags from a file into a list. The code is as follows (and may be wrong):
....
xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError: no element found: line 3, column 0

What can I do to fix this, if anything? My overall goal has been to
simply get the text of the XML document into a text file, but even that
has failed (I get naught but gibberish), so any help would be appreciated.
your XML file is broken (note that it's the "parse" function that throws
this error).
