Hi,
thanks for putting me on the right track.

up to the export part I allready did what you suggest above, I just opened it again to pick up where I left back then.

Below you can find the links to the indesign file, the file to import and the exported xml file.

The way I worked was:
1. load tags from xml file
2. build up the structure I needed in the structure pane
3. with dragging to the textframes and a lot of fiddling in the Story Editor, I created the textFrames in which I can import the XML
4. import xml (with the right settings)
5. almost finished

I needed 3 textFrames, 1 for each channel

When you import 'import.xml' into the InDesign fil, you'll see that it allready does what I want exept that all the days get imported into the same textframe.

The channels get import into separate textFrames, but that is easy because there are only 3 channels so you can add a propertie to the channels in the strucure pane.

So my only question - for now - is, how could get only the movies from 1 day into a textframe, and the movies from the next day into the next textFrame (on the next page)?

* when I export to xml I get the same file that I imported. Except that indesign put an unknown character after almost each xml-tag

thanks in advance.
