...which dies horribly when there is only one <Entry>-element, e.g. the following XML: `<table> <Entry No="1"> <lastname_>Dasd</lastname_> <firstname_>Dasd</firstname_> <street_>Dasd</street_> <houseno_>12</houseno_> <zip_>1231</zip_> <city_>Dasd</city_> <sex_>maennlich</sex_> <marital_>geschieden</marital_> <character_>Brille Sommersprossen</character_> <description_>asdas </description_> </Entry> </table>` [download] Which prooves what Anonymous monk said before... ;) McA	[reply] [d/l]

True, but why would you write a script for a single record? ;)	[reply]
Re^6: Reading XML LibXML by McA (Priest) on Oct 02, 2013 at 11:16 UTC
Probably a script fetching external xml-files, where you get 0-n <Entry>-tags in each file... ;)	[reply]
