display and navigate through large xml file
|
|
|
| Hello,
I'm struggling with a very large XML file. I would like to find out a
better way to navigate through the nodes and their content. The features I'm
looking for:
1) Text search, or node and attribute search.
2) Once I find the text (an attribute for example), I would like to quickly
find out the path from the root to it.
I've been using IE and just open the file with .xml extension but figuring
out the path to a deep place in the doc is not a simple thing to do there.
Thanks!

| You can implement a text search easily enough using XSLT - I've certainly
done it and there are XSLT examples to generate XPath statements for the
context node - I think Dimitre wrote an article about it.
Ahh - found one reference to it:
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N6077.html
Maybe Dimitre has a url to the one that I'm really thinking of?

| Thanks Dimitre - I can never find that one when I want it. Even google seems
to get stumped and retrieve just about anything else it can possibly find
but the page I want. Ahh, the rise of technology will kill us all - I think
they made a few films with Arnie along those lines?
:)
