Hi everyone,
I've got a little project that requires me to parse a simple XML
file. The file comes from the browser history of Apple's Safari and
includes the URL that was visited, the title of the Web page, the
date and time it was last visited, and the total number of times it
was visited. Here's a snippet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://
www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>WebHistoryDates</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key></key>
<string>http://www.hopkins.k12.mn.us/pages/eisenhower/
eisenhower.lasso</string>
<key>displayTitle</key>
<string>Welcome to Eisenhower Elementary</string>
<key>lastVisitedDate</key>
<string>156350702.0</string>
<key>title</key>
<string>Welcome to Eisenhower Elementary</string>
<key>visitCount</key>
<integer>285</integer>
</dict>
</array>
<key>WebHistoryFileVersion</key>
<integer>1</integer>
</dict>
</plist>
Let's say that instead of one <dict>, the xml file had 100 of them. I
want to generate a simple table of URLs and the dates they were last
visited. I can handle everything except parsing the XML file and
extracting the information.
Anyone have any pointers?
