How can we do to replace the content of one tag in a pseudo-xml string?
22 May 2009
what you can do is : (requires xmlSet and xmlGet )
Let ([
_xml = $yourXMLhere
; _tagToReplace = $theTagToReplaceHere
; _newValue = $theNewValueHere
; _string = xmlGet ( _xml ; _tagToReplace )
];
Replace ( _xml ; position ( _xml ; _string ; 0 ; 1 ) ; length ( _string ) ; xmlSet ( _tagToReplace ; _newValue ))
)
