I am using Amazons AWS and have a quick XML question.

One of the returned attributes in the XML is as follows...

ItemLookupResponse.Items.Item.Tracks.Disc[1].Track[1].XmlText
ItemLookupResponse.Items.Item.Tracks.Disc[1].Track[2].XmlText
ItemLookupResponse.Items.Item.Tracks.Disc[2].Track[1].XmlText
ItemLookupResponse.Items.Item.Tracks.Disc[2].Track[2].XmlText

Is there any way to know how many discs there are so that I can loop over
the xml extracting the data.  At present I use a couple of nested loops (one
for discs and one for tracks) each from 1 to 100 to make sure nothing can be
missed and then use cfcatch to ignore the inevetable errors, problem is it
is then doing 10,000 itterations.

Ideally I want more like...

<Cfloop from="1" to="#someFunction()#" index="I">

Where the function returns the number of children of a particular node.
