in reply to xml to database?

I use XML::XQL to extract data from XML blocks. I haven't really needed to build anything really generic yet, so my use so far has been very ad-hoc, grabbing pre-defined parts of the XML block and storing this in the database.

But XML::XQL (and friends) should be a good starting point for you.

    Thanks -- just what I needed to get going the right direction! New to perl, much appreciation.

      I wouldn't use XML::XQL though. It is a rather old module, but most of all it is based on a query language that never became a standard. There is really no point in learning XQL nowadays. You would be much better of learning XPath, either using XML::XPath or (probably a better idea) XML::LibXML.
