Your problem lies elsewhere. > bb = etree.Element(self.get_time) > return str(bb) In future, please copy and paste (do NOT retype, simplify or summarize) the full traceback you get, not just the error message. In this case, I *think* I can *guess* your error, based on the error message alone, but I could be completely off-base. But my guess is that you need: bb = etree.Element(self.get_time()) rather than: bb = etree.Element(self.get_time) The later tries to insert a method get_time into the element tree. You need to call the method by putting brackets () after it. -- Steven D'Aprano _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
