Micro Document Object Model: a partial DOM implementation with SUX.
This is an implementation of what we consider to be the useful subset of the DOM. The chief advantage of this library is that, not being burdened with standards compliance, it can remain very stable between versions. We can also implement utility 'pythonic' ways to access and mutate the XML tree.
Since this has not subjected to a serious trial by fire, it is not recommended to use this outside of Twisted applications. However, it seems to work just fine for the documentation generator, which parses a fairly representative sample of XML.
Microdom mainly focuses on working with HTML and XHTML.

Return a list of all child elements of iNode
with a name
matching name
.
Note that this implementation does not conform to the DOM Level 1 Core
specification because it may return iNode
.
Parameters | iNode | An element at which to begin searching. If iNode has a name
matching name , it will be included in the result. |
name | A str giving the name of the elements to return. | |
