FAQ for XML with Python

[Dave Kuhlman]

For those who are beginners to using Python to process XML, I've
recently updated my Python XML FAQ (PyXMLFaq). It has a number of
code samples that may help you get started. You can find it here:

Comments and suggestions will be appreciated.

You might want to include a list of things you assume the reader
already knows, including links to pages where the reader can learn
about them if it's not the case.

I have one suggestion. It's a beautiful page, and one day I'll know
enough to appreciate the help it provides, but until then it's always a
big help to the novice (in many fields of knowledge) if the first use
of an acronym includes the words it stands for in parenthesis.

In law and medicine and many other fields, this is a quick, unobtrusive
way to enlighten anyone who doesn't know what SAX or DOM stand for.
Think of it as initializing the acronym or defining the variable or
whatever: you do it only once, but it really helps the new kids.

Thanks,

rick

Good idea. I've added a couple of links near the top of the
document to two sites (The XML Cover Pages and the XML page at
Wikipedia) that explain these things better than I could.

Thanks for the suggestion.
