Making hash from two arrays

[Sean Davis]

I have two arrays of equal length and I would like to make a hash using 
one array as the keys and one as the values.  Is there a simpler way of 
doing this besides making a loop and counter variable?

Thanks,
Sean

splitting large xml file

[Sean Davis]

I have a very large (200Mb) XML file that consists of multiple records.  I
would like to split these records up and store the XML for each in a
database for quick retrieval.  I simply need to echo all of the XML between
the enclosing record tags into the database.  Ideally, I would use SAX to
parse things, but I can't figure out how to echo the data back out exactly
as I got it.  Any clues?

Thanks,
Sean

Rob,
Thanks for replying.  I ended up answering my own question.  I used 
XML::Twig to find chunks I was interested in, could grab indexing 
information from the twig, then save the indices in a database for 
later lookup of the entire XML record and...presto, random-access of 
200 Mb of XML!

Optionally you could look at XML::RAX.
Article on the RAX concept:
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/04/26/rax/index.html
RAX allows you to specify a record seperator (a tag in the XML file), 
and
splits into into chunks of that tag.  It is stream based so it only 
reads in
as much of the file it needs to construct the next record.  It only 
applies
to XML files that fit that type of format though (like RSS).  At the 
very
least you might find the code helpful.

but I can't figure out how to echo the data
back out exactly as I got it.
I'm not sure I completely understand.  Anyway I am out of here today, 
hope
you find an answer.
