in thread XML::LibXML - parsing question!!

Hmm I am at the end of the road here... validated everything and it still fails.... finally checked my XML::LibXML::LIBXML_DOTTED_VERSION

$perl -MXML::LibXML -le 'print for $XML::LibXML::VERSION, XML::LibXML: +:LIBXML_DOTTED_VERSION' 1.70 2.6.16

Will try upgrading my libxml2 libraries...
