[Omaha.pm] database -> XML

[George Neill]

Hi j,

   I am curious as to why you chose to use xml attributes over elements?

i.e.

      <loss cas="N" doa="20070523" exprrev="338.00" gcnt="2" los="2"  
rt="DELUXE" seg="07" src="TUSNTL-PH" time="20070420111725" type="RR"/>

vs.

   <loss>
     <cas>N</cas>
     <doa>20070523</doa>
     <exprrev>338.00</exprrev>
     <gcnt>2</gcnt>
     <los>2</los>
     <rt>DELUXE</rt>
     <seg>07</seg>
     <src>TUSNTL-PH</src>
     <time>20070420111725</time>
     <type>RR</type>
   </loss>


Later,
George.
