[New-bugs-announce] [issue34306] minidom: wrong processing of xmlns attributes

[Victor Porton]

New submission from Victor Porton <porton at narod.ru>:

The below script prints

http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/
aa:aa

It should print

None
aa:aa

because xmlns:z is NOT an attribute of xmlns namespace.

~~~
import xml.dom.minidom

x = xml.dom.minidom.parseString("<x xmlns:z='aa:aa' z:q='1'/>")

for i in x.documentElement.attributes.values():
    print(i.namespaceURI)
~~~
