It parses HTML 4 or backward-compatible XHTML in a way that's more SAX-like than DOM-like, though you could still use it to build a DOM. It's well suited for modifying documents in place, because tags you don't need to modify can pass straight through without risk of indigestion. http://www.shearersoftware.com/software/developers/htmlfilter/ -- Andrew _______________________________________________ XML-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/xml-sig
