That's what's referred to as a "self-closed" xml tag. The "/>" at the end of the single line closes the tag started by "<".

Try revXMLNodeContents(1,"/gpx/trk/trkseg") -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
