I would like to learn how to parse a mixed text/xml document I downloaded from the sec.gov website (see example below). I would like to parse this to get the value for each xml tag and then access it within R, but I don't know much about xml so I don't even know where to start debugging the errors I am getting in this example code. Can anyone help me get started?
