Does anyone have any examples of reading in a XML file and using it in a script with the Extendscript tools? I have an older script that parses the file manually but just ran across the XML section in the CS4 Javascript Tools Guide. I wonder if I could overhaul this scrip by using the built in XML tools.

Here is some pseudocode to get started.

Code: Select all

var file = ...;

// read XML
var content = file.read();
var xml = new XML(content);
var elements = xml.elements(); // retrieve all elements at root level in standard array
...

// write XML
var content = "... xml content ...";
file.write(content);
