I'm afraid I'm no IE expert (read: never use it if I can
avoid it) but I suspect here a combination of slightly
flaky code in the Python module plus, maybe, a change in
the IE dom object model.

If you change lines 1832-1836 of cPAMIE.py to be as follows:

<patch>
            for j in range(doc.length):
                x = doc[j] 
                etype = getattr(x,"type", "")
                name = getattr(x,"name", "")
                nameProp = getattr(x,"nameProp", "")

</patch>


then at least some kind of output is produced. But I'm
not entirely sure what this function is trying to achieve
so I don't guarantee it's doing the right thing yet.
