Properties

attrib
Returns a dict containing all pseudo-attributes that can be parsed from the text content of this processing instruction. Note that modifying the dict currently has no effect on the XML node, although this is not guaranteed to stay this way.

tag
Element tag

target

Inherited from unreachable.__ContentOnlyElement: text

Inherited from _Element: base, nsmap, prefix, sourceline, tail

Inherited from object: __class__

new(T, S, ...)

Returns: a new object with type S, a subtype of T
Overrides: object.__new__

(Representation operator)

repr(x)

Overrides: object.__repr__

get(self, key, default=None)

Try to parse pseudo-attributes from the text content of the processing instruction, search for one with the given key as name and return its associated value.

Note that this is only a convenience method for the most common case that all text content is structured in attribute-like name-value pairs with properly quoted values. It is not guaranteed to work for all possible text content.
