Hi Matrixmadhan,

I'm working on another script. Basically it's somehow the same with the previous xml but the problem is some of the parameters have space between > <. Please see sample below. Hope you can help me again. Thanks again in advance!

Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?><message><sbr version="1.0"><appid>Messaging</appid><custid>adm_root_provider</custid><callid>032147109</callid> <trmid>5</trmid><portid>16</portid> <callstart>12/11/2007 15:16:46</callstart><callend>12/11/2007 15:17:30</callend><chstart>12/11/2007 15:16:47</chstart><chend>12/11/2007 15:17:30</chend><type>1</type><status>0</status><called>
</called><callreturnused></callreturnused><nonsubused>0</nonsubused></sbr></message><?xml version="1.0"?>

Script that we used before:

Code:
#! /usr/local/bin/perl 

my $c = 0;

open(OUTPUT, ">>", "result.txt");
#chomp(@inputfayl = `cat file.txt`);
chomp(@inputfayl = `ls -lrt | awk '/SMSR/ { before = curr; curr = \$9 }END{ print before }'`);
#system("echo $inputfayl >> newfile.txt");
# if (compare("newfile.txt","oldfile.txt") == 0) {
   while (<@inputfayl>) {
      if (/SMSR/) {
        $inputfayl=$_;
        system("echo $inputfayl >> newfile.txt");
          use File::Compare;
           if (compare("newfile.txt","oldfile.txt") == 1) {
          print OUTPUT "$inputfayl ##########################################################################################\n";
          &processi; 
      }
      else {
      print "wala";
      system("rm newfile.txt");

    }
    }
}
sub processi { 
open inputfayl or die "Cannot open file for read :$!";

while(<inputfayl>) {
  chomp;
    my @arr = split(/></);
    foreach (@arr) {
    if( /xml version/ ) {
      $c++;
      print OUTPUT "\n";
    }
    if( />/ && /</ ) {
      if( $c == 1 ) {
        s/(.*)>(.*)<.*$/\1|\2/;
        my($tmp1, $tmp2) = split(/\|/);
        $data .= (" " . $tmp2);
        printf OUTPUT "%s ", $tmp1;
      }
      else {
        s/(.*)>(.*)<.*$/\2/;
        printf OUTPUT "%s ", $_;
      }
    }
  }
  print OUTPUT "\n";
  print OUTPUT "$data\n" if( /xml version/i );
}

close inputfayl;

system("rm oldfile.txt");
system("mv newfile.txt oldfile.txt");
#exit 0
}
exit 0

EVOLVOTRON_MUTATE(1)						    Evolvotron						      EVOLVOTRON_MUTATE(1)

NAME
evolvotron_mutate - Render an evolvotron function tree to an image. SYNOPSIS
evolvotron_mutate < function_in.xml > function_out.xml evolvotron_mutate -g > function_out.xml DESCRIPTION
evolvotron_mutate either mutates an existing image function (saved to an XML file), or (with the -g option) creates a new image function. The mutation parameters and function weightings are the same as used by evolvotron in its default reset state. See the evolvotron user manual (accessible from the evolvotron application's Help menu) for more information on image functions. COMMANDLINE OPTIONS
-g Specifies that no function should be read from standard input. The output function is created at random. EXAMPLES
evolvotron_mutate -g | tee function0.xml | evolvotron_render function0.ppm evolvtron_mutate < function0.xml > function1.xml AUTHOR
