Re: Not able to replace element value using XML::Twig

Your example code actually works as expected. Are you sure you're looking at the replacement file? It's a bit easier to do the same thing with handlers:

my $twig = XML::Twig->new(
    twig_handlers => { 
        stats => sub { $_->set_tag( 'stats_test' ) } 
    } );
$twig->parse_file(...);
$twig->flush;

as per the documentation.

Try `parsefile` instead of `parse_file`. XML::Twig is an exceptionally well-documented CPAN module, and the `parsefile` method is described in its POD. There are many ways to search for information. Just typing "xml twig parse_file" into Google returns: `Did you mean: xml twig parsefile Top 2 results shown` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
