an XML document can only have a single root element, but your example
has at least two top-level elements (abcd and xyz).
here is some elementtree code that handles this by wrapping your data in
a "root" element.
from elementtree import ElementTree
p = ElementTree.XMLTreeBuilder()
p.feed("<root>")
p.feed(open("mydocument.xml").read())
p.feed("</root>")
root = p.close()
def printelem(elem, prefix=""):
label = elem.get("label")
if label:
if not prefix:
print
print prefix + label
for elem in elem:
printelem(elem, prefix + "..")
for elem in root:
printelem(elem)
# end
