Since I'm on Linux, I use wget to access the webservice (can also handle SOAP headers too), then Capture the output...and parse away.
I've written some helpful internal parsing tools for XML - but it requires you to know what your looking for. You can parse for a value like "top>node1>node2>node3>elementname" and it will drill down and return the value. Or just cut out "node1" from "top". Also have a tagcount routine to let me know how many times a node repeats Then I can loop through, and pull a specific node as it's own XML, then just parse that one. Right now, the XML parser is for very straightforward XML. It might work with namespaces.

Are there tools for this or am I going to just open a socket, read, and parse 'till I'm blue in the face? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jeff Schasny - Denver, Co, USA jschasny at gmail dot com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
