Hi, I'm trying to write a fairly basic text parser to split up scenes and acts in plays to put them into XML. I've managed to get the text split into the blocks of scenes and acts and returned correctly but I'm trying to refine this and get the relevant scene number when the split is made but I keep getting an NoneType error trying to read the block inside the for loop and nothing is being returned. I'd be grateful for some suggestions as to how to get this working.for scene in text.split('Scene'): num = re.compile("^\s\[0-9, i{1,4}, v]", re.I) textNum = num.match(scene) if textNum: print textNum else: print "No scene number" m = '<div type="scene>' m += scene m += '<\div>' print m
The problem is with your regular expression. Unfortunately, I can't tell what you're trying to match. Could you provide some examples of the scene numbers? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
