I mean, sure you want to extract the tags and their attributes and contents, but what then? Maybe if you tell us what do you want to do with the data we can give a more detailed advice. Anyway, Mirod already advertised his XML::Twig, so I'll likewise advertise mine XML::Rules. If you need to skip parts of the XML, tweak the structure generated from other parts and handle (whatever that means) the parts as soon as they are parsed, XML::Rules can help. There's a few examples in the example directory in the distribution and a few more on Perlmonks.org Jenda ===== [email protected] === http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz ===== When it comes to wine, women and song, wizards are allowed to get drunk and croon as much as they like. -- Terry Pratchett in Sourcery _______________________________________________ Perl-XML mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
