Python supports a variety of modules to work with various forms of structured
|
||
|
data markup. This includes modules to work with the Standard Generalized Markup
|
||
|
Language (SGML) and the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), and several interfaces
|
||
|
for working with the Extensible Markup Language (XML).
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is important to note that modules in the :mod:`xml` package require that
|
||
|
there be at least one SAX-compliant XML parser available. Starting with Python
|
||
|
2.3, the Expat parser is included with Python, so the :mod:`xml.parsers.expat`
|
||
|
module will always be available. You may still want to be aware of the `PyXML
|
||
|
add-on package <http://pyxml.sourceforge.net/>`_; that package provides an
|
||
|
extended set of XML libraries for Python.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The documentation for the :mod:`xml.dom` and :mod:`xml.sax` packages are the
|
||
|
definition of the Python bindings for the DOM and SAX interfaces.
