Re: parsing xml with zip, xml and clojure.data.zip

If I have this for my xml file... (def myxml (zip-str level1 level2 a='the attribute' level3aText in level 3a/level3a level3bText in level 3b./level3b /level2 /level1)) My question is how the xml- function determines how nested you have to specify things. Eg (xml- myxml :level1 text) = () (xml- myxml :level2 text) = (Text in level 3aText in level 3b.) (xml- myxml :level2 :level3a text) = (Text in level 3a) The last call gives the text in 3a, but why don't you have to specifiy that it is under level 1 as well as level 2?

Re: parsing xml with zip, xml and clojure.data.zip
AFAIK your var myxml already refers to the root node of your XML document. So your first example searches for a tag called level1 inside the root tag (which is level1). Obviously, there is no such node and the text is empty. Your second example extracts a textual representation of the child nodes (plural) of tag level2. The third example references the tag level3a inside the tag level2 and extracts the text, which contains no more child nodes but just the text. Hope that helps Stefan -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Clojure group.

Re: parsing xml with zip, xml and clojure.data.zip
Ahh, so if the var refers to the root that would explain why specifying the root never returns anything. Thanks.
