Sure:


def trig():
	filename = eg.fileopenbox(msg=None, title='Open file...', argInitialFile=sys.path[6]+'\example.txt')

	file = open(filename)
	mydom = parse(file)



	trigs = mydom.getElementsByTagName('trigger')

	for trig in trigs:
		match = trig.getAttribute('match')
		regex = trig.getAttribute('regexp')
		send = trig.getElementsByTagName('send')
		send = send[0].toprettyxml()
		send = str(send).replace("	","",1)
		send = send.strip("<send>\n")
		send = send.strip("</send>\n")

		newline = "Match is: \n" + match "Send is: " + str(send)
		Write.write(newline)
	file.close()

Its called by a menu function in Tk, as thats the base of the program, a GUI.


menubar = Menu(Root)
File = Menu(menubar, tearoff=1)
File.add_command(label = "Open file...",command=open_file)
File.add_command(label="Convert XML", command=trig)
menubar.add_cascade(label="File", menu=File)

The 'file' is a local variable, and as stated if the function is in a py file by itself, but not as a function, as the actual program itself, the conversion works. Inside the function call, for some reason it doesn't.

Ked:
