That makes sense, any idea how to deal with it, flush the buffer somehow?
This is what the code looks like:
from xml.sax import make_parser
from xml.sax.handler import feature_namespaces, feature_validation
from xml.sax.handler import ContentHandler, ErrorHandler, DTDHandler
.
.
.
evalHandler = EvaluateKeyHandler()
parser = make_parser(['_xmlplus.sax.drivers2.drv_xmlproc'])
parser.setFeature(feature_validation, 1)
parser.setFeature(feature_namespaces, 0)
parser.setContentHandler(evalHandler)
parser.setErrorHandler(evalHandler)
f = open(file)
parser.parse(f)
.
.
.
def characters(self, content):
self.keywordData += content
>>> xmlproc.version
'0.70'
PyXML-0.8.3
Python 2.3.3
Red Hat Linux 3.3.3-7
