lxml 2.0.5

Powerful and Pythonic XML processing library combining libxml2/libxslt with the ElementTree API.

Latest Version: 2.1.1

lxml is a Pythonic, mature binding for the libxml2 and libxslt libraries. It provides safe and convenient access to these libraries using the ElementTree API.

It extends the ElementTree API significantly to offer support for XPath, RelaxNG, XML Schema, XSLT, C14N and much more.

Features added

Bugs fixed

  • Resolving to a filename in custom resolvers didn't work.
