Re: Nesting below emptiness and/or inverting a hash.

I may be (in fact, probably am) missing something significant, but... couldn't you dump the parsed XML data into a database (with some kind of context info (eg - a field indicating a tag's parent)), and then rebuild the data structure afterwards?

That would be prohibitively slow. The existing version in development can parse a gigabyte in less than a minute. I don't want to slow it down with database calls otherwise I am defeated from the outset. -M Free your mind	[reply]

Ah. Yes, that would be the "something significant" that I missed. :-D	[reply]
