-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've just worked through Adobe's XML tutorial for InDesign and am now in the process of applying what I learned to a "real" document. The XML document I'm importing is well-formed and was extracted from a database. How do I deal with elements of the same kind but with different attributes? The idea is to have the XML imported automatically. Can InDesign react to attributes and fill the target document with as many elements as necessary, or would this have to be addressed with AppleScript? Who has done some "real" XML importing and can point me into the right direction. Hints, urls, book recommendations welcome.
