    Sure, but you'll have to decide on a data structure

      No still not working :( There are MULTIPLE AppDeployMentFile entries each with 1 to N application entries, each with 1 to N urlInfo sections. I somehow need to call this multiple times on each appDeploymentFile "chunk"? Thanks for your help though! Appreciate it. NEver mind, I just used xml_split on the appDeploymentFile tag and will prcoess each file from that.
