RE: [U2][UV] XML DOM
Symeon, What are the "spurious problems" when using utf-8 encoding? Perry -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Symeon Breen Sent: Thursday, July 27, 2006 4:08 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2][UV] XML DOM Hi Perry, If you are talking the EXT file then the things to be careful of are the starting point in the xml tree as defined by the start property and where to place the , to denote MV and SV extraction. If you are talking the DOM then it may be good to have a look at the xml in some sort of DOM viewer first as this will show how to traverse nodes, get into text nodes etc, basically when you navigate the dom you need to tell it what type of node as well as if it is parent, child,sibling etc. If you have some examples i am sure we can all take a look and help out.

Re: [U2][UV] XML DOM
Hi Perry, If you are talking the EXT file then the things to be careful of are the starting point in the xml tree as defined by the start property and where to place the , to denote MV and SV extraction. If you are talking the DOM then it may be good to have a look at the xml in some sort of DOM viewer first as this will show how to traverse nodes, get into text nodes etc, basically when you navigate the dom you need to tell it what type of node as well as if it is parent, child,sibling etc. If you have some examples i am sure we can all take a look and help out.
