Re: [xml] Weird parser problem (more info)

["Eric S. Eberhard" <flash vicspdi com>]

That is because I was being vague (like an end-user).  It was just failure 
to test the type combined with the fact that the parser creates nodes with 
"text" in the name field and the tag I was looking for was "text" and I was 
getting the wrong node (type 3 instead of type 1).
