I expect the dict to have the "Space usage summary", but it doesn't (duplicate?). What am I doing wrong here? I am attempting to keep the attribute value of an XML as key (if it doesn't have a value, then just the tag name will do) and associate it with the text value of that tag/attribute value as well as reflecting the hierarchy structure of the XML in the dict. Does this make sense? Anyway, the python script above is just the first step or an example for me. Cheers and thanks again Astan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: converting XML to hash/dict/CustomTreeCtrl

Nobody wrote: The code you're using expects the XML to follow a particular format, and yours doesn't. You might want to start with a fairly direct translation, e.g.: def xmldict(e): d = {} d['tag'] = e.tag d.update(e.attrib) children = map(xmldict, e) if children: d[
