I have tried a couple of XML freeware readers with no success to read some XML based Catalan dictionary files which have elements like this in them (see below).
What software will extract / view the embedded data ??

[One of 5,300 elements in the General Usage dictionary]

- <fitxa num="5">
<areatematica>Protecció civil: Policia</areatematica>
<denominacio llengua="ca" tipus="principal" jerarquia="terme pral." categoria="loc adj">a llarga distància</denominacio>
<denominacio llengua="es" tipus="equivalent" jerarquia="terme pral." categoria="">a larga distancia</denominacio>
<denominacio llengua="en" tipus="equivalent" jerarquia="terme pral." categoria="">distant</denominacio>

:confused: PB
 
Whoa. What happenned there.

For the first time, I haven't seen the markup notation, just the embedded data.

How come that happened when I cut and pasted the text into the thread and not when I open the original document in my browser ?

getting more confused by the minute PB
 
XML files are just "text", so you can read with Internet Explorer or Notepad even.

Are you wanting to do "queries" on the XML contents?

Because IE "understands" XML so has stripped out the Tags
