When I see one more whining post about Google using python for App Engine instead of php, I'm going to advocate LISP or Turbo Pascal for it, ffs.

Should you ever need to work with XPath extensively, there's XPather for Firefox, that looks quite nice, but unfortunately I couldn't get it to work today, so I had to improvise. Then I stumpled across the very cool feature of xmllint, that lets you browse XML documents like directories.

(fa@don):(~/tmp) $ cat test.xml
<body>
<table><tr><td>a</td><td>b</td></tr></table>
<div>
<table><tr><td>c</td><td>d</td></tr></table>
</div>
</body>

(fa@don):(~/tmp) $ xmllint --shell test.xml
/ > cd //table[parent::div]/tr/td
td > ls
t-- 1 d
td >

And to not be completely offtopic, I'll admit that once I got my XPath expressions, I fed them to SimpleXML
