[pykml] "AttributeError: 'lxml.etree._ElementTree' object has no attribute 'Document'
#1
Hello,

I'm getting started with pykml to read/edit KML files, and am stuck right at the beginning with this error:

import lxml
from pykml import parser

"""
dummy.kml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml xmlns="http://earth.google.com/kml/2.0">
  <Document>
    <name>KML Samples</name>
    <open>1</open>
    etc.
"""    

doc=None
with open('dummy.kml') as f:
	doc = parser.parse(f)

print(doc.Document.name)
"""
d:\>Read.KML.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:\Read.KML.py", line 15, in <module>
    print(doc.Document.name)
AttributeError: 'lxml.etree._ElementTree' object has no attribute 'Document'
"""
Am I missing something to keep pykml/lxml happy?

Thank you.
