RE: XML vs. Name Value pair

I know you were being facetious but heck, I have the code so why not show
it.  This is not the code for the document I showed earlier because the
project is next on my priority list.

This program (http://mowyourlawn.com/temp/MSHPNOTFN.txt) serializes and
parses a Shipping Notification document
(http://mowyourlawn.com/temp/ShipAck.xml).  Yes parsing XML in RPG isn't
very elegant, and yes I am very aware of that :-)  Why do I do it, because
Java is slow enough on the iSeries that I thought I would give it a shot.

First show us the code for extracting the values from the XML document ;-)
