in reply to XML Parser question
How can i retrieve author or description or replycount fields from the XML document given below.
Strip the bogus namepsace identifier jf. Where did you get that from? certainly not from forums.com.
$xml =~ s/jf://g;
Add the attributes you want according to the docs:
XML::RAI::Item->add_mapping($_,$_) for qw(modificationDate author replyCount);
There might be a way to register xmlns:jf within the XML modules suite you are using. Reading the docs might help...
