I was using xpath in python 2.4 and it was working fine.

But when I switch to python 2.7 and try to import the xpath library, it complains xpath doesn’t exist:

from xml import xpath

Does anyone know if xpath exist in python 2.7?

    If you want to use xpath with python 2.7, xml.etree.elementTree is part of the standard library since Python 2.5 and it contains a basic xpath findall function. PyXML is outdated and shouldn’t be used.

    If you need something more powerful, I would install lxml.
