Sure thing,
Sample xml...
<playlist>
<items audios=0 videos=2 games=1 playlists=0>
<video>....</video>
<video>....</video>
<game>....</game>
</items>
</playlist>
This gens out to code that has 4 arrays: audio, video, game, playlist.
I'd like to automagically tie the attributes on the items node
(audios, videos, etc) to the size of the arrays.
Thanks for the help
