Hi all

I have the XML document below and I would like to update some nodes according to a list.

Here is the XLM document:

....
<unit id="3Ojs1SLwMmEHK8mJ0_dc2:43”>
  <titleEN>{3&gt;19&lt;3}</ titleEN >
  <titleFR>{3&gt;19&lt;3}</ titleFR >
  <alt-title origin="tilte"><otherTitle/></ alt-title>
  <alt-title origin="price"><otherPrice/></ alt-title>
</unit>
....

[download]

and here is the code:

use XML::LibXML;
my $parser =XML::LibXML->new();
my $tree   =$parser->parse_file($xml);
my $root   =$tree->getDocumentElement;

my ($application_id_node) = $root->findnodes('//file/body/group/unit/a
+lt-title/otherTitle/text()');
$application_id_node->removeChildNodes();
$application_id_node->appendText('new value');

[download]

How is it possible to update the below node?

  <alt-title origin="tilte"><otherTitle/></ alt-title>

[download]

so that it should be

  <alt-title origin="tilte"><otherTitle>new value<otherTitle></ alt-ti
+tle>
