Lamaizm... XML problem...

[durumdara]

Hi!

Something makes me crazy!!!
I wanna read some XML, but everytime I got "None" for the value of prop:

The code is:

from xml.dom import minidom
import sys

ResultList = []

def LoadProps(PropTag):
print PropTag
t_forms = PropTag.getElementsByTagName('form')
for t_form in t_forms:
t_comps = t_form.getElementsByTagName('component')
for t_comp in t_comps:
t_props = t_comp.getElementsByTagName('prop')
for t_prop in t_props:
attrs = t_prop.attributes.keys()
print attrs
print t_prop.nodeName
print t_prop.nodeType
print [t_prop.nodeValue]
sys.exit()


doc = minidom.parse('c:\\teszt3.xml')
print doc
t_langfile = doc.documentElement
t_props = doc.getElementsByTagName('properties')[0]
t_constants = doc.getElementsByTagName('constants')[0]
LoadProps(t_props)

-------------------
The result is:
<xml.dom.minidom.Document instance at 0x0172A3C8>
<DOM Element: properties at 0x1739378>
[u'id', u'name']
prop
1
[None]-------------------

The source file is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1250"?>
<langfile>
<properties>
<form>
<component>
<prop id="aaaa" name ="bbbb">cccc</prop>
</component>
</form>
</properties>
<constants>
</constants>
</langfile>
-------------------
I can get the attrs, but I can't get nodeValue (cccc)... I got None for it.

Why???

Please help me a little!!! I'm sure that I miss st, but I don't know
what is that... :-(

Thanks for it:
dd

from xml.dom import minidom [...]
t_props = t_comp.getElementsByTagName('prop')
for t_prop in t_props:
attrs = t_prop.attributes.keys()
print attrs
print t_prop.nodeName
print t_prop.nodeType
print [t_prop.nodeValue]
sys.exit()

The W3C DOM treats text as nodes, so you have to check the children of t_prop
to find the text node and then read its nodeValue.

Alternatively, consider using an XML library that actually helps users in
working with XML, such as ElementTree or lxml.
