I have an wxPython application that stores configuration info and meta
data in xml. I hold this xml data in a dom for easy use. I pass a lot
of data to wxPython functions calls that require string types. Now all
those calls (a lot) raise a TypError.
How do I use a different driver? This is how I get my dom:
from xml.dom.ext.reader import Sax
doc = Sax.FromXml(s,ownerDocument)
