IMO XML::Simple is anything but simple to use, but the program below may
help. I can't suggest any more without knowing what sort of output you
need.
Rob
use strict;
use warnings;
use XML::Simple;
my $xml = <<XML;
<config>
<param name="SequenceNumber">66</param>
<param name="T1">6</param>
<param name="T3">6</param>
<param name="T4">540</param>
<param name="DownloadDate">11-28-07</param>
</config>
XML
my $tree = XMLin($xml);
use Data::Dumper;
foreach my $item (keys %{$tree->{param}}) {
printf "%s => %s\n", $item, $tree->{param}{$item}{content};
}
**OUTPUT**
T4 => 540
T1 => 6
SequenceNumber => 66
DownloadDate => 11-28-07
T3 => 6
