My guess is that your unfamiliarity with xml is the root of your problems, rather than a deficiency in the libxml library. I regularly parse wsdl xml files in this fashion in order to determine their structure, and this involves recursive hierarchical data constructs using just text-chunking functions. If you're dealing with a simple enough xml layout you may be able to construct some text functions that do the job, but for anything more complex you'll need to dive into how the revxml functions work. -- -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
