Re^4: need help with for loop within an xml

Yeah sorry my bad I just verified with different with different subnet values and it IS picking the correct values.

Can you please help me understand the modification you made to XML:Simple

as below

my $xml = do {local $/='';'file.xml'} ;

#my $servers = XMLin('file.xml');
my $servers = XMLin($xml, ForceArray => 1);

`my $xml = do {local $/='';<DATA>} ;` reads the lines following __DATA__ into a string. Since your XML is in a separate file use `my $servers = XMLin('file.xml',ForceArray => 1);` and remove the __DATA__ line and all the lines following. `ForceArray=1` ensures `$servers->{server}` is an arrayref even if there is only one server block in the file.
