Subject: [Buffalo-pm] XML w/perl
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0701061024130.5727@solairis.com>

Hi all,

I have a XML file I'm trying to read with perl. I'm using XML::Simple,
which is great. But I'm running into a problem. I'm trying to get a
value like this:

$xml_hash->{Object}->{Link}->[11]->{Object}->{Attribute}->[3]->{content}

The problem is that on one go around the field I"m looking for may be
the 3rd element and the next time it might be the 2nd or 4th. All
depends on how the xml was generated (which I have no control over). I
think that my understanding of XML is all wrong. Can anyone point me to
an article on this or should I be looking into the more complex
XML::Parse?

Thanks!

-Josh

Hello Mongers,

 As part of my greeting to the Buffalo pm I would
like to ask a question:

 Is it permissible to make a job posting to this list?

We've done that before. I'm sure it would be welcome, even if it's only
tangentially related to perl.

Brian and Randal are in town for another week, and are looking for some

Anyone available/interested?

We will be meeting for lunch tomorrow at Pearl Street Grille & Brewery.
They have good food and an excellent beer selection.

We can meet up and drive together so that no one gets lost. I figure
that we should meet Brian and Randal at the Motel 6, next to the old
Hooters, at 11:30.

Let me know if you're interested in attending.
