Re: question on how to parse out a response from service

[Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi George,

You haven't provided much information here...  I'm guessing the problem 
is that the web server is returning one XML document embedded within 
another one?  Is that what you're saying?  That the document you show 
here comes out of HTTPAPI's XML parser?

If so, here's an example of extracting an 'inner payload' XML from an 
outer one:
