I encountered a problem while using function parseString

xml.sax.parseString(src, builder)

TypeError: 'str' does not support the buffer interface

I trying change this calling to:

xml.sax.parseString(bytes(src,'utf-8'), builder)

but still not working

Python 3.2

What version of Python? Did you try `src.encode('utf-8')`? – agf Sep 28 '11 at 12:04
Yes, still nothing. Python 3.2 – falek.marcin Sep 28 '11 at 12:14

And with the utf-8 bytes, are you getting the same error? – rodrigo Sep 28 '11 at 14:09
Yes. I found similiar problem here, but there is also no clearly solution: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/docs/2010-November/002269.html – falek.marcin Sep 28 '11 at 15:33
