Another solution:

use XML::XPath

The hard part is that you must write the xpath query which
extract your datas ... and xpath is very hermetic.

But the perl code may be very short :)

I don't see how it could be. This isn't a case where you want to pull data from a document selectively, which XPath excels at. It's a case where you want to transcribe the entire document into a different format, where recursive processing of the full structure is inevitable. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]

The original post said that the MathML units code was just a small part of a much larger technical specification document, so something like XPath or XML::Twig will be required to extract it. I don't suppose you would want to write an XSLT translation specification for the entire document just to get the units.	[reply]

You can easily write an XSLT transformation that processes only a small part of its input. For those parts the OP wants to process he still needs to traverse the full sub-structure, though. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]
