This includes modules to work with the Standard Generalized Markup +Language (SGML) and the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), and several interfaces +for working with the Extensible Markup Language (XML). + +It is important to note that modules in the :mod:`xml` package require that +there be at least one SAX-compliant XML parser available. Starting with Python +2.3, the Expat parser is included with Python, so the :mod:`xml.parsers.expat` +module will always be available.
