The xml file is like this:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="Cistrome.xsl"?>
<motifs>
<motif id="hPDI060">
..........
</motif>
</motifs>
My python code is like this:
tree = ElementTree.parse(sys.argv[1])
for node in tree.findall('.//motifs'):
print("found")
However, after I run the codes, the found
string is not displayed, in other words, .//motifs
doesn't find the right tag.
Does anyone have ideas about this? Thanks!
findall will look for all the child elements of the current tag, while your current tag is "motifs". Therefore, there is nothing found
You can check what the current tag is by
> tree.tag
> 'motifs'
Be sure with what you wanna find, motifs
or motif
tree.findall('*')
将在根元素motifs
下找到所有motif
