Hi Cor thanks, but that won't do.
If I write a part out in a tree structure you'll see why:
map
map.classes
map.classes,class1
map.classes,class1.areaColor
map.classes,class1.value
...
map.classes,class2
map.classes,class2.areaColor
map.classes,class2.value
...
...
...
map.layers
...
...
...
With the node..* syntax all properties would be assigned to the same level
But within the classes part class1 and class2 both have a property 'value'.
class2.value would overwrite class1.value.
What I basically want is to transform the xml structure into an object
structure.
Any other takers?
Tanks
