Quick Start example import fails about thedom

[timothycrosley]

@metaperl thanks for reporting this issue,

Sadly, this project has been dead for awhile due to lack of interest - I've still developed some of my own sites with it - but can't keep it going on my own - without any community involvement.

Over the past few months, I've attempted to learn more about releasing Python projects the right way - by releasing some simpler ones, and really putting the majority of the time investment on the quality of the github presentation, usage instructions, and packaging:

https://github.com/timothycrosley/isort
https://github.com/timothycrosley/pies

and:

https://github.com/timothycrosley/frosted

While, I still have a lot to learn, I feel maybe now is a good time to give this project another shot - and hopefully get enough community involvement to be successful. Any interest in being added as a maintainer / contributor if I revive the Project?

What an honor to be added as a contributor. I could certainly do some
cleanup. There is a new library very similar to webelements just posted to
reddit python - https://github.com/Knio/dominate

I've added you as a collaborator so you should be able to directly commit to the project. After looking at dominate I still think WebElements has a lot of unique features to offer (like templating, custom elements, etc), and the best course of action, for now, is to revive the project. Over the next week I'll be working on cleaning up the code to match PEP8, and working on a better github page and setup file in preparation for a re-release. I'll also add a contributers.txt file, and note the two of us manage the project :)

Thanks!

It looks like the website www.WebElements.in is not under source
control? I saw some typos there I wanted to fix.

Also, I dont plan to commit directly to your repo. I forked and plan to
make pull requests.

I think forking and then pulling is the correct approach. You're correct it's not currently under source control, i'll create a repo for it soon, and link to it here.

I've added the code that powers the site here: https://github.com/timothycrosley/webelements_site, and added you as a collaborator on that project as well.
