All,

I'm trying to simply retrieve some info from a OpenOffice Draw document section using XML::Twig. I have tried several variations but can't get to the data inside the section.

I'd like to be able to read the 'draw:name' in the following: 

<draw:frame draw:id="id2" draw:layer="layout" draw:name="objectName" d
+raw:style-name="gr1" draw:text-style-name="P3" [svg skipped]
  <draw:text-box>
    <text:p text:style-name="P1">
      <text:span text:style-name="T2">objectData</text:span>
    </text:p>
  </draw:text-box>
</draw:frame>

I can get the 'objectData' text of that draw:frame section. How can the draw:name attribute be read ? Here's what I do to get the text: 

 my $twig = XML::Twig->new
   (
   parse_param_ent => 1,
   twig_handlers => 
   {
    'draw:frame' => \&getDrawInfo,
   },
   );

 $twig->parsefile("file.xml");

sub getDrawInfo
{
  my ($t, $data)= @_;
  print "DEBUG " . $data->text . "\n";
}

I've tried accessing subsections of draw:frame in many ways although none of them returned the draw:name attribute

Thanks for any suggestions/insight.
