From xml.etree.ElementTree.Element docs it is not obvious that find() and fundall() functions all return immediate children of current element. | ||

The introduction [1] to etree explains it: Element.findall() finds only elements with a tag which are direct children of the current element. IMHO it's also the obvious outcome for anybody familiar with XML and XPath. [1] http://docs.python.org/3/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html#finding-interesting-elements |
