Or you could just use XML::Simple. Borrowing from toolic's example:
use strict;
use warnings;
use XML::Simple;
my $xfile = <<EOF;
<people>
<person><name>Jane Doe</name><age>42</age></person>
<person><name>John Doe</name><age>43</age></person>
<person><name>Foo Bar</name><age>43</age></person>
</people>
EOF
my $people = XMLin($xfile);
foreach (keys %{$people->{person}})
{
my $person = $people->{person}->{$_};
next if $person->{age} != 43;
print "$_ is $person->{age}\n";
}
__END__
John Doe is 43
Foo Bar is 43

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
