[xml] getting atribute values

["Miguel Costa" <mkos7a gmail com>]

I'm having some questions, that maybe be easy to some, but i'm getting
some problems getting it done, so here it goes.

image you have one xml that looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>
  <destination_ip>
    <dest_ip>192.168.10.50</dest_ip>
    <dest_port>1024</dest_port>
  </destination_ip>
  <source_ip>
    <src_ip>192.168.10.50</src_ip>
    <src_port>1025</src_port>
  </source_ip>
  <tos_byte>
    <tos_b>255</tos_b>
  </tos_byte>
  <message_id>
    <msg_id>255</msg_id>
  </message_id>
</root>

and you want to do something simple like the result from
http://xmlsoft.org/examples/tree1.c

but instead fo that i want to print out to the screen something like this:

dest_ip , 192.168.10.50
dest_port , 1024
tos_b , 255
msg_id , 255
etc...

the problem is that i'm not getting anywhere near that, i tried change
the code from the example, but i always print out some results i don't
want.

first i tried to get only the XML_TEXT_NODE values, then a bunch of
other ways, and i'm getting kind of lost in the recursion here.

is there anyway of doing it without recursion?

sorry if it was posted, but i checked for the archive and didn't find any
