Yahoo Weather RSS Feed - XML Help

[Guest]

I am not terribly saavy with XML parsing and am trying to format a simple RSS feed from Yahoo! Weather.
The problem I am having is with the 3 namespaces: yweather:condition and the two yweather:forecast nodes. I know how to print out all the other parts of the XML but when it comes to the namespaces I don't understand how to access their attributes.

For the other items in the XML document I am using: xmlfile.rss.channel.item.description.xmltext which is simple enough.

Can someone please tell me how to access the attributes of the yweather nodes?

Thanks in advance!


Here is a short version of the XML below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:yweather=" http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/ns/rss/1.0" xmlns:geo=" http://www.w3.org/2003/01/geo/wgs84_pos#">
<channel>
<item>


<yweather:condition text="Fair" code="34" temp="67" date="Tue, 22 Aug 2006 10:36 am CDT" />
<yweather:forecast day="Tue" date="22 Aug 2006" low="61" high="79" text="Sunny" code="32" />
<yweather:forecast day="Wed" date="23 Aug 2006" low="64" high="80" text="Scattered Thunderstorms" code="38" />
</item>
</channel>
</rss>

I think you're looking for somehting like this:

StructFind(xmlfile.rss.channel.item.yweather:condition.XmlAttributes,"text")

The solution provided above generates the error below. Any further assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Missing argument name.
When using named parameters to a function, every parameter must have a name.

I think the colon in the element name is causing problems with CF (I got the same error).

I tried it by referring to the array element, and it did work.

#StructFind(mydoc.rss.channel.XMLChildren[11].XmlAttributes,"sunrise")#

Try that.
