RE: wheres the API

Thanks for the help getting started.

Now unless im understanding the DOM incorrectly the following code
should work but getElementsByTagName is throwing an exception.
I also tried getElementById("Express"), getElementById("Priority") and
it returned None in both cases

Traceback:

    * Line 19
    * Module Products.ParsedXML.ParsedXML, line 252, in
getElementsByTagName

AttributeError: __getattr__


Python Code line 19

  packagesElem = rateRequestObj.getElementsByTagName("Package")


ParsedXML object:

<RateRequest USERID="xxx" PASSWORD="xxx">
  <Package ID="Express">
    <Service>Express</Service>
    <ZipOrigination>xxxxx</ZipOrigination>
    <ZipDestination>xxxxx</ZipDestination>
    <Pounds>0</Pounds>
    <Ounces>0</Ounces>
    <Container>None</Container>
    <Size>Regular</Size>
    <Machinable>False</Machinable>
  </Package>
  <Package ID="Priority">
  ...
  </Package>
</RateRequest>
