Yes, that's a completely different question than getting data from res/ values/strings.xml -- even though they look like the same thing!
It's also an easy question you would have answered yourself, were you not expecting there to be an event! A reasonable idea, but incorrect, and that's what's confusing you. There is not a separate event for attributes. You get attributes when you process the START_TAG event. See the XmlPullParser.getAttributeCount() method, and the XmlPullParser.getAttributeXXX(int), family of methods.
