ElementMaker(self, namespace=None, nsmap=None, annotate=True, makeelement=None)

An ElementMaker that can be used for constructing trees.

Example:

>>> M = ElementMaker(annotate=False)
>>> html = M.html( M.body( M.p('hello', M.br, 'objectify') ) )

>>> from lxml.etree import tostring
>>> print(tostring(html, method='html').decode('ascii'))
<html><body><p>hello<br>objectify</p></body></html>

Note that this module has a predefined ElementMaker instance called E.
