You can do this with a stream-based parser but it takes a bit of work. You keep a stack of which object you’re currently building, and when you finish an element you pop the corresponding object and hand it to the new top object, to store a reference to it. This sort of thing is easier with a DOM-based parser where you can inspect the entire tree of objects at once, but the Cocoa one (NSXMLDocument) isn’t available on iPhone for some reason. —Jens_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
