Mark - fair enough: I acknowledge my unfamiliarity. My cries of pain were

Thanks for that really interesting insight. I think I'll do exactly what you

I have been asked to do some work on some GPX files: these files originate from
GPS devices, and are in XML format. I've never had to deal with XML before, so

page 189. There is a sample XML file and a discussion of t
