    <p>I have a bit of script that I think is nearly there. I have worked out a crude way of writing it, but I can't work out how to get it to function as a for loop.</p> <p>I am extracting data from an xml file that uses the following format:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Trackpoint&gt; &lt;Time&gt;2012-01-17T11:44:35Z&lt;/Time&gt; &lt;Position&gt; &lt;LatitudeDegrees&gt;51.920211518183351&lt;/LatitudeDegrees&gt; &lt;LongitudeDegrees&gt;26.706042898818851&lt;/LongitudeDegrees&gt; &lt;/Position&gt; &lt;AltitudeMeters&gt;-43.6026611328125&lt;/AltitudeMeters&gt; &lt;/Trackpoint&gt; &lt;Trackpoint&gt; &lt;Time&gt;2012-01-17T11:45:21Z&lt;/Time&gt; &lt;Position&gt; &lt;LatitudeDegrees&gt;51.920243117958307&lt;/LatitudeDegrees&gt; &lt;LongitudeDegrees&gt;26.706140967085958&lt;/LongitudeDegrees&gt; &lt;/Position&gt; &lt;AltitudeMeters&gt;-43.6026611328125&lt;/AltitudeMeters&gt; &lt;/Trackpoint&gt; </code></pre> <p>I can use the following to get say the LatitudeDegrees:</p> <pre><code>from xml.dom.minidom import parse doc = parse('/Users/name/Documents/GPS/gps.tcx') lat = doc.getElementsByTagName("LatitudeDegrees") time = doc.getElementsByTagName("Time") trackpoint = doc.getElementsByTagName("Trackpoint") for x in lat: print(x.firstChild.data) </code></pre> <p>but I would like to get the Lat, Long and time in order.</p> <p>I am guessing I need to use </p> <pre><code>for x in trackpoint </code></pre> <p>but the only way I can work out how to do that is as follows. </p> <pre><code>count = 0 n = len(trackpoint) while count &lt; n: print(time[count].firstChild.data) print(lat[count].firstChild.data) print(lon[count].firstChild.data) count += 1 </code></pre> <p>anyone have any ideas? I think I am just missing something really simple!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
