parseString

Synopsis

parseString(string,parser=None)

Like parse, except that string is the XML document in string form.

xml.dom.pulldom also supplies class DOMEventStream, an iterator whose items are pairs ( event,node ), where event is a string giving the event type, and node is an instance of an appropriate subclass of class Node. The possible values for event are constant uppercase strings that are also available as constant attributes of module xml.dom.pulldom with the same names: CHARACTERS, COMMENT, END_DOCUMENT, END_ELEMENT, IGNORABLE_WHITESPACE, PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION, START_DOCUMENT, and START_ELEMENT.

An instance d of class DOMEventStream supplies one other important method.
