Hello,
I need some help with XML::Parser, i have this code i been working on, i got it to work. but what i need is to pull all element data from <item>
how can i pass them all into a hash?
for example have the first <item> element title in the hash and the next one and so on..
$data->{channel}->{item}->[0]->{title};
$data->{channel}->{item}->[1]->{title};
$data->{channel}->{item}->[2]->{title};
$data->{channel}->{item}->[3]->{title};
anybody....?
#!/usr/bin/perl
# import packages
use XML::Simple;
use LWP::Simple;
# initialize object
# get RSS data
$raw = get('http://movies.go.com/xml/rss/intheaters.xml');
# create object
$xml = new XML::Simple;
$data = $xml->XMLin($raw);
$title = $data->{channel}->{item}->[0]->{title};
$link = $data->{channel}->{item}->[0]->{link};
$description = $data->{channel}->{item}->[0]->{description};
print "Title: $title\n";
print "Link: $link\n\n";
print "Description: $description\n";
