Hello monks, I am new to Perl and I am trying the past couple of days to use the Simple::XML module to parse some info from an XML document. The wanted tags from the whole document, which is called data.xml are the following: 
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<PubmedArticle>
            <PMID>1766380</PMID>
            <Article PubModel="Print">

             </Article>
</PubmedArticle>

I read numerous tutorials and I managed to print all other tags apart from the details for the authors, that is <LastName>, <ForeName>, <Initials>. I used the following code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use XML::Simple;
use Data::Dumper;

$simple = XML::Simple->new;
$data = $simple->XMLin('data.xml');
print $data->{PMID};
print $data->{Article}->{...}->{...};

I only have problem with the authors, because there can be more than one, contrary to all the other info contained in my xml... Can you help me please?
