(As an aside, it does that in a rather inefficient way.) lxml.html is for parsing HTML, it's not meant for parsing "python that builds HTML". To belabor the point, lxml.html is meant for proper HTML, nothing else. Therefore, you should be feeding a text file (HTML file) into LXML, not a piece of python code that builds HTML. Where did you get that HTML? How did it get to be part of the python code above? Walter
