Re: What is the best XML module to use?

If the files expect to be large, have a look in XML::SAX. This module provides XML parsing by events, so it's make possible to parse large files without getting much of memory.

XML::Twig is similar in that you will be able to delete elements or whole subtrees as soon as you no longer need them. XML::Twig will also fire event handlers when elements are completely parsed. I found it very easy to use. Take a look at the XML::Twig homepage. You will find a comparison between different XML modules and how well they are suited for different tasks. `$\=~s;s.;q^\|D9JYJ^^qq^\//\\\///^;ex;print`	[reply] [d/l]
