--------------------------------

Hello,

the following program generates an error in version 2.0.5 :

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
data="<food><item name='breakfast'>Idly</item><price>$2.5</price><description> Two idlys with chutney </description><calories>553</calories></food>"
myroot = ET.fromstring(data)

print(myroot.tag)

Version 2.0.4 works as expected.

Regards
Rolf

Sorry, no solution currently.

You have to stick with 2.0.4 and watch the issue on GitHub.
