Emne: [WEB400] XML-INTO Example

Hello,

I'm fairly new to using xml-into. I'm currently trying to write a program
that uses xml-into and %handler to parse order information. How can I use
xml-into and %handler to parse the xml and write them into separate header
and detail tables without having to specify the order nbr inside of the
item_list section. Anyone have an example I can check out? Below is a
watered down sample xml I need to parse:

<request>
<order>
<nbr>123</nbr>
<item_list>
<item>abc</item>
<item>def</item>
</item_list>
</order>
<order>
<nbr>456</nbr>
<item_list>
<item>abc</item>
<item>def</item>
<item>xyz></item>
</item_list>
</order>
</request>

Thanks,
