New submission from Eric S: Documentation states: Element.findall() finds only elements with a tag which are direct children of the current element.
More accurate to say "direct descendents" as "direct children" implies only one generation below whereas function goes down to all g...children. For-looping findall with inner recursion to rebuild hierarchy as dict, etc. can cause very large tree. ---------- messages: 247404 nosy: Eric S priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Element.findall documentation misleading _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24724> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
