I haven't yet revisited the task, but you're right, I didn't 
post here (or elsewhere).  And I was using XML::DOM

Someone clued me in to the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
which I may try when I get back to this.

Thanks,
Joe

Joe, you didn't post here?!  Or did you post the AS XML list?
Did you try the XML Parser?  Or even HTML::Parser subclassed?

I'm sure Perl's XML support will improve: it has to, even if
I end up hacking it myself (Lord help you all if I do). XML
and XSLT are still young, yadder yadder.....

What did you do in the end?
