Hi Monks, I am trying to modify a XML File using a perl script I am trying to change the value of a XML tag in that file The file is a follows 
<root>

<test>

<name att="abc">file</name>

<href>file.txt</href>

</test>

<test>

<name att="cde">file1</name>

<href>file1.txt</href>

</test>

</root>

Now I want to modify the value of the "name" tag inside "test" node wh
+ich has att=abc only.

#!usr/bin/perl

use XML::Twig;
use Data::Dumper;

my $t= XML::Twig->new(
                  twig_roots   => { name => \&convert, },
                  twig_print_outside_roots => 1,
                             );

$t->parsefile_inplace( 'data.xml');

sub convert
{
    my( $t, $name)= @_;

    $name->set_text( 'sriram');
    $name->print;
}

+ but I want to do it specific to it.I am new to perl ...wants your he
+lp....Thanks in advance....:)
