Hello the list,

I have question about ElementTree module, I didn't find a specific list so I post here. I hope I'm not wrong.

I would like to know how to change the namespace URI of all the Element of my XML tree without changing anything else.

I want that because I have to compare 2 XML trees, so I walk trought the first tree, and each time I found an element, I delete it (with the Element.remove() function) on the second tree. This way, I can see if there is remaining or lacking elements in my second tree. The problem is that my two trees may not have the same namespace, so the Element.remove() function doesn't work. That's why I want to change the namespace.

Also, The Element.remove() documentation says it compares element with their identity ; what is exactly an element identity ?

Thank you,

Ben
