in reply to perl script to convert xml to pdf

Wouldn't it be much easier if the data looked like this?!?

$var1={
    'stud.xml'={ 
        '24' => {
            streetname => "xxxx",
            housenum => "138"
        },
        '20' => {
            streetname => "xxxx",
            housenum => "110"
        }
    },
    'pav.xml'={ 
        '26' => {
            streetname => "xxxx",
            housenum => "138"
        },
        '27' => {
            streetname => "xxxx",
            housenum => "110"
        },
    },
    .
    .
    .
}

How do you extract the data anyway? You are not attempting to extract data from XML with regexps I hope!
