Re: NSXML and element parsing

Well no replies regarding this, would anyone be able to push me in the right direction to parse a simple XML to get a single element from a certain child?

try NSXMLDocument nodesForXPath:error: method, as described in <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/NSXML_Concepts/Articles/QueryingXML.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001258 >. You supply an XPath expression and this method returns the matched nodes.

For example "//Book[2]/Title" would return the Title-node of the second book.

Cheers,

For testing purposes my XML file looks like this :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mysqldump xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
	<Book>
		<Comment>amazing book</Comment>
		<Title>Book Title</Title>
		<Publisher>Me</Publisher>
	</Book>
	<Book>
		<Comment>bad book</Comment>
		<Title>Another Book</Title>
		<Publisher>Someon Else</Publisher>
	</Book>
</mysqldump>


TIA,
-justin
