[issue5873] Minidom: parsestring() error

You'll have to name your string differently; you can't have xml refer
to both the string and the package :)

Please refer to python-list or the comp.lang.python newsgroup for
further usage questions.

[issue5873] Minidom: parsestring() error

[Nicolas Frantzen]

New submission from Nicolas Frantzen n.frant...@gmail.com:

Hi,

I'm pretty new to the community but I get an error using the minidom
parseString() method. Here is my code (ulta simple!):

import xml.dom.minidom
xml = taghello/tag
doc = xml.dom.minidom.parsString(xml)

And here is my error trace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File C:\test.py, line 6, in module
doc = xml.dom.minidom.parsString(xml)
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'dom'

I get this error no what string I gave it. I use python 2.6 (latest
stable release).

Can someone point in the right direction...google has not been very helpful.

Thanks!

Nico
