Hi,

I can highly recommend XML::Simple - just use it like this:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use XML::Simple; 
use Data::Dumper;

my $ref = XMLin('xmlin.xml');

# now you've got the whole XML file in $ref:
print Dumper($ref);
print "\n";

print $ref->{'ResultItem'}->[0]{'MenuName'};
print "\t";
print $ref->{'ResultItem'}->[0]{'Count'} . "\n";

__END__

Now you can walk over the hash/array structure and everything's fine :-)

HTH,

Philipp
