in thread Parse XML into CSV Files

Once you remove the last <Vehicle> tag from the XML, the XMLin parser should read the file and then you can iterate over the vehicle array like this:

my @vehicle_list = @{ $config->{Vehicle} }; foreach my $vehicle ( @vehicle_list ) { print $vehicle->{AuctionID} . "\n"; }

    Thanks for the reply,

    This is what i have found in another post on here,

    It seems to work fine until i get a XML TAG with no data in it. ie,
    <Mileage> </Mileage>


    When i print this variable to either the screen or an output file i get a value such as,

    HASH(0x17ce550)

    Any ideas how to stop this??

      This is the default behaviour for XMLin with empty elements, but you can change it, e.g.:

      my $config = XMLin( $xml, SuppressEmpty => "" );

      See XML::Simple for the details.
