in reply to parsing & retrieving from an XML file

Hello sbafna and welcome to the monastery and to the wonderful world of Perl!

I abandoned the use of XML::Smart long time ago. iirc the smart part ends in it's name..

In a recent thread you can review all serious tools to parse XML using Perl. My homenode has a bunch of links about the matter.

I normally use XML::Twig that has also a website with tutarials and docs.

There are no rules, there are no thumbs..
Reinvent the wheel, then learn The Wheel; may be one day you reinvent one of THE WHEELS.
