Jenda,

Thanks for your suggestions on the rules. I've gotten to the point where I'm trying to extract values out of the CDATA field. I've tried a lot of different ideas (HTML tables, simple HTML extraction, stripping tags, RegExp, etc.) but I think that using the ::Rules engine would simply be the most straightforward. I've read your CPAN writeup on ::Rules (are you the author? Very cool) and studied but I'm not quite sure how to best proceed.

I can extract the CDATA content and end up with a resultant set of tags and values. Your comment leads me to believe that I can create a hash of the tags and values then pick the ones I want. That seems to be the exact discussion in the ::Rules section about addresses, streets, Larry Wall, multiple tags and hashrefs. But I don't understand the discussion in that section, can you expand further?

Your XML::Rules section, quoted below, would seem to be the relevant part.

our %states = (
          AL => 'Alabama',
          AK => 'Alaska',
          ...
        );
        ...
        state => sub {return 'state' => $states{$_[1]->{_content}}; }

 or

        address => sub {
                if (exists $_[1]->{id}) {
                        $sthFetchAddress->execute($_[1]->{id});
                        my $addr = $sthFetchAddress->fetchrow_hashref(
+);
                        $sthFetchAddress->finish();
                        return 'address' => $addr;
                } else {
                        return 'address' => $_[1];
                }
        }
