Find element with attribute with minidom

Question

Given

Answer 1

Wow, that regex is horrible! As of 2016, there is a .getAttribute() method for each DOMElement that makes things a bit easier, but you still have to iterate through the elements.

l = []
for e in elements:
    if e.hasAttribute('name') and e.getAttribute('name') == 'field.len':
        l.append(e)
