Searching backwards?

2000-09-21 Thread David Bovill

The XML parsing I need to do needs to be done backwards from the end of the
file - extracting one tag at a time from the end of the file. I am wandering
if there is a fast way to do this or I have to consider, converting the data
first by reverse sorting it?

Any ideas on searching backwards for XML tagged data?

Can you post a (small) sample of the data--or send it to me? I'm curious to
understand better what you're trying to do.
