If you're using a gnu-like awk that supports a record separator pattern, this might work for you:

Code:
awk '
    /property name=/ {
        gsub( ".*value=\"", "" );
        gsub( "\".*", "" );
        print;
    }
' RS="[<>]"  input-file

Parser::Style::Tree(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    Parser::Style::Tree(3)

NAME
XML::Parser::Style::Tree SYNOPSIS
use XML::Parser; my $p = XML::Parser->new(Style => 'Tree'); my $tree = $p->parsefile('foo.xml'); DESCRIPTION
This module implements XML::Parser's Tree style parser. When parsing a document, "parse()" will return a parse tree for the document. Each node in the tree takes the form of a tag, content pair. Text nodes are represented with a pseudo-tag of "0" and the string that is their content. For elements, the content is an array reference. The first item in the array is a (possibly empty) hash reference containing attributes. The remainder of the array is a sequence of tag- content pairs representing the content of the element. So for example the result of parsing: <foo><head id="a">Hello <em>there</em></head><bar>Howdy<ref/></bar>do</foo> would be: Tag Content ================================================================== [foo, [{}, head, [{id => "a"}, 0, "Hello ", em, [{}, 0, "there"]], bar, [ {}, 0, "Howdy", ref, [{}]], 0, "do" ] ] The root document "foo", has 3 children: a "head" element, a "bar" element and the text "do". After the empty attribute hash, these are represented in it's contents by 3 tag-content pairs. perl v5.8.4 2003-08-18 Parser::Style::Tree(3)
