Hi all
I recently decided to switch to xml for the configuration of our programs.
I am now looking for a good way to handle that xml data.
Basically, what I am looking for is a functionality where I say
Get tag x with attribute1=y, attribute2=z,..., read its contents and put it in
an associative array.
If you want that much granular detail then you might want to use XPATH.
The syntax is obviously a little different than PCRE, but once you
understand it you'll find it's much more efficient (and easier) than
building monstrously large PCRE's.
