I'm struggling with package XML to parse a Garmin file (named *.tcx).
I wonder if it's form is incomplete, but appreciably reluctant to paste
even a shortened version.
The output below shows I can get nodes, but an attempt at value of a
single node comes up empty (even though there is data there.
One question: Has anybody succeeded parsing Garmin .tcx (xml) files?
Thanks!
Michael
