Didn't quite follow what some of this workshop was asking, spent some time writing a pulldom and minidom parser for the xml files, to print a similar output to the provided sax parser (only prints lines though).

I found it suprisingly hard to find good examples for XML handling in python. The manual only seems to give an overview of the objects, but doesn't go into detail about methods etc. Maybe i'm looking in the wrong places, its a long time since i've had to look up information on python, but i remember the online manual being a very valuable resource. I thought google would have been more help, but failed me this time round. My python "bible" (James R. Curran, Notes for Building a Python Search Engine) does not mension xml, its a few years old (2002), and is not intended to cover such material.

Worked on an XSL. Its minimalistic, but its nice and easy to see how different parts of it work.
