Remote XML Parsing

[pyapplico]

How can I parse a remote XML file with Python?
And what will I be able to do with this XML file in Python?

Sorry if this is a noob-ish question.

You can process XML data with Python as long as you can get it - you
will be able to do what you want with it.

How do you access your remote file ?

....more details would be wellcome...

Net protocols -> urllib2 module
Local files (or network mounted files) -> open function
Remote call -> xmlrpc, omniORBpy, pyrpc...


Once you get the XML data... sax/dom/elementtree & Co (see Python docs, Dive
Into Python...).
