And what changes would I have to make if I wanted the output as: Definition1: link name Definition2: link name
PHP: #!/usr/bin/perl -wmy $file = "file.xml"; # Replace this with your xml filemy $line = 0;open(XML, $file);my @xml = <XML>;close(XML);my $a = 1;foreach $line(@xml) {if($line =~ m/<link>(.*?)<\/link>/i) {print "Definition $a\n$1\n";$a++;}} This outputs Code: Definition 1 google.com Definition 2 state.tn.us Hope this helps! Remember to replace the $file variable with the name of your xml file.
