Look at the last line above - you're giving parse() a string
containing XML data which the parse() function is treating as a
filename; trying to open a file with a name equivalent to your XML
content!
If you want to parse an XML string - use et.fromstring() instead.
The StringIO call may be reasonable if your XML didn't exist on disk;
but if your source data is on disk best to either give parse() the
filename (but then you get your #13 issue) or pass it a file handle
provided by open().
Sorry I overlooked the last line. I dumbly supposed that parse() could
take either a file handle or a string.
