Hi All, I'm using XML::Simple to parse a very simple XML file and dump the data into hashes of hashes.
The problem I'm getting, is sometimes information is blank in the XMl file; it looks like this: <STREETNUM/> instead of <STREETNUM>1234</STREETNUM> and when I print the hash: print "$x->{VEHICLE}->{STREETNUM} "; it returns: "HASH(blahblah)"; How do I test for this so it prints blank? I've tried many things, the most logical I could think of was: if ($x->{VEHICLE}->{STREETNUM}){ print ... } else { print ""; } but even that doesn't work.
