oh yes thanks for that! thanks. i overlooked that. my big...
anyways, here's the correct xml version:
<? xml version="1.0" standalone="yes" ?>
<albums>
<owner>Percy</owner>
<category name ="rock">
<artist>Alice in Chains</artist>
<artist>The Pixies</artist>
<artist>Percy and the Test Tube Babies</artist>
</category>
<category name = "reggae">
<artist>Bob Marley</artist>
<artist>Peter Tosh</artist>
<artist>Percy Gone Jazz</artist>
</category>
</albums>
in using xml parser, how can i get the content of element 'owner'? i
created the code but every content between the xml elements we parsed.
here's my code:
#! /usr/local/bin/perl
use XML::Parser;
my $parser = new XML::Parser ();
$parser->setHandlers (Start => \&Start_handler,
End => \&End_handler,
Default => \&Default_handler
);
my $filename = shift;
die "Can't find '$filename': $!\n" unless -f $filename;
$parser->parsefile ($filename);
sub Start_handler {
my $p = shift;
my $el = shift;
if ($el =~ m/owner/g) {print "<$el>"};
}
sub End_handler {
my ($p,$el) = @_;
if ($el =~ m/owner/g) { print "</$el>\n"; };
}
sub Default_handler {
my ($p,$str) = @_;
# my $p = shift;
# my $str = shift;
if (($str =~m/Percy/g) or ($str =~m/Percy/g)){ print "\n$str\n"; }
}
