I just didn't want to say, "I have no idea what you're talking about!"
to Scott cause I figured that would be rude, but I guess so is not
saying anything, sorry. So I'll need to read up on it before I
actually try to do anything with that approach.
Seeing the errors - I changed the two classes to this:

If you had done a better job of asking your question, you'd have found a
quick answer. That is why everyone points people at smartquestions, not
to pick on them.
Presuming you have an xml structure like:
txt = '''<abc> something <def>
<name name='steve' characterID='sid'> Some contents. </name>
<name name='stevey' characterID='sidy'>Other contents.</name>
</def></abc>'''
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
structure = ET.fromstring(xmls)
for node in structure.findall('def/name'):
print '%s: %s / %s: %s' % (node.tag, node.attrib['name'],
node.attrib['characterID'], node.text)
or a file named 'my.xml' with the same contents:
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
structure = ET.parse('my.xml')
for node in structure.findall('def/name'):
print '%s: %s / %s: %s' % (node.tag, node.attrib['name'],
node.attrib['characterID'], node.text)
