I'm new to perl. I'm parsing an XML string and need to print out its context. I'm having a really tough time with the correct syntax to use to access the array/hash it creates.

Data dumper prints out this...

$VAR1 = [
'ResultSet',
[
{
'xmlns' => 'urn:yahoo:maps',
'xmlns:xsi' => 'http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance',
'xsi:schemaLocation' => 'urn:yahoo:maps http://api.local.yahoo.com /MapsService/V1/GeocodeResponse.xsd'
},
'Result',
[
{
'precision' => 'address'
},
'Latitude', {}, 0, '28.312216' ,
'Longitude', {}, 0, '-81.380514' ,
'Address', {}, 0, '2335 Pepper Tree Ct' ,
'City', {}, 0, 'Kissimmee' ,
'State', {}, 0, 'FL' ,
'Zip', {}, 0, '34744-2820' ,
'Country', {}, 0, 'US'
]
]
];

How do I access the latitude and longitude?

I tried this...

$data = $xml->parse($thedata);
print $data->{ResultSet}->{Result}->{Latitude};

But no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry the formatting was slightly destroyed. Also, I have to use XML::Parser, was using XML::Simple but encountered problems.
