Hello,
I have a xml file like this, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms762271(v=vs.85).as...
Lets say I want to get all the book titles authored by, ¨O'Brien, Tim¨. What is the best way to do that?
Hi,
Have you looked at XPath?
The link above is for the lxml API. There are many resources on the web for learning the XPath syntax. Your example would be something like this (untested)
element_list = some_lxml_tree.xpath( '/book[author/text() = "O'Brien, Tim"]')
