XML data extract
Hi all,

I have the following xml document :

Code:
 
<HEADER><El1>asdf</El1> <El2>3</El2> <El3>asad</El3> <El4>asasdf</El4> <El5>asdf</El5> <El6>asdf</El6> <El7>asdf</El7> <El8>A</El8> <El9>0</El9> <El10>75291028141917</El10> <El11>asdf</El11> <El12>sdf</El12> <El13>er</El13> <El14><El15>asdf </El15></El14> <El16><El17>asdf</El17> <El18>My type to print</El18> <El19>Another value with spaces</El19> </El16> </HEADER>

The elements are seperated with a space. I would like to print each element in a seperate row , but if i do the following , the values of elements that have spaces are printed in seperate lines. For example


echo above_xml | awk '{ for (i=1;i<=NF;i++) print $i }'

Code:
 
<HEADER><El1>asdf</El1>
<El2>3</El2>
<El3>asad</El3>
<El4>asasdf</El4>
<El5>asdf</El5>
<El6>asdf</El6>
<El7>asdf</El7>
<El8>A</El8>
<El9>0</El9>
<El10>75291028141917</El10>
<El11>asdf</El11>
<El12>sdf</El12>
<El13>er</El13>
<El14><El15>asdf</El15></El14>
<El16><El17>asdf</El17>
<El18>My
type
to
print</El18>
<El19>Another
value
with
spaces</El19>
</El16>
</HEADER>


The desirable output would be the same but in el18 and el19
Code:
<El18>My type to print</El18>
<El19>Another value with spaces</El19>

Thanks in advance
