Re: [xml] what functions

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

Get the node and change the field ... it is a structure.

xmlNodePtr cur;
xmlNodePtr start = xmlDocGetRootElement(docname);
//error checking
tag = "tiger";

for (cur=start->children;cur;cur=cur->next) {
           if (!xmlStrcmp(cur->name,tag)) {
                        xmlNodeSetContent(cur,"ddd");
}

This is HIGHLY oversimplified in that I am not traversing sub levels, etc 
.... and the code may work fine for you if you have already gotten the node 
pointer for the tag above what you are interested in (e.g. "start" would 
not be the top of the document, it would be the node pointer for <animal> 
in this case).  Or if you already have <tiger> then just set the 
content.  There are functions to set just about everything including 
attributes.

Note you may want to use:  xmlEncodeEntitiesReentrant(document,value); to 
encode your values properly.
