[lxml-dev] iteraprse comment parsing

[kris]

        Hello,
         
        I noticed a difference in parsing behavior between 
        iterwalk and iterparse.  It could simply be that I do
        not know how to turn off comment parsing.  
        
        Any help would be appreciated.
        
        Thanks,
        Kris
        
        
        python ~/xml-test.py

        2aad85d0f3c0>]
        using walk
        ['start', <Element r at 2aad85d0f460>, 'start', <!-- asjsjs -->,
        'end', <!-- asjsjs -->, 'end', <Element r at 2aad85d0f460>]
