I don't use the xml library to do the simple tag processing for three
types of tags
Chunk expressions are so fast that I get better speed and control of
the data parsing.
------- Use these steps to get started----
on test
replace cr with empty in xmlBlock
replace quote with "'" in xmlBlock --(apostrophe ' char)
--now you can use quote expressions without worries
-- such as in the next line
replace "<statuses type='array'>" with (cr & "<statuses
type='array'>") in xmlBlock
filter xmlBlock with "<statuses type='array'>*"
put 0 into statusCount
repeat for each line statusArrLine in xmlBlock
replace "<status>" with (cr & "<status>") in statusArrLine
replace "</status>" with ("</status>" & cr) in statusArrLine
filter statusArrLine with "<status>*"
repeat for each line statusTag in statusArrLine
replace "<status>" with empty in statusTag
replace "</status>" with empty in statusTag
--now we have the data only, and on a single line
add 1 to statusCount
put statusTag into storArray[statusCount]
end repeat
end repeat
--> statusCount = total
--> storArray[num] = strings storage
end test
Hope this helps.
