Xml Tool - Iteration with Attributes

[Alex]

I have the following code and questions:

#set($myXML = $xmltool.read("https://xxx.xxx.com/test.xml"))

Here is the XML document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>

<forecast>

<location id="MROC">

        <day name="Wednesday">

            <high unit="C">8</high>

            <low unit="C">6</low>

            <icon>18</icon>

            <windspeed unit="kph">42.0</windspeed>

            <wind_dir>E</wind_dir>

            <hdd>20</hdd>

            <cdd>0</cdd>

            <phrase>Rain, some heavy; winds will be locally damaging</phrase>

            <US>Cloudy</US>

        </day>

     <day name="Thursday">

            <high unit="C">8</high>

            <low unit="C">6</low>

            <icon>18</icon>

            <windspeed unit="kph">42.0</windspeed>

            <wind_dir>E</wind_dir>

            <hdd>20</hdd>

            <cdd>0</cdd>

            <phrase>Rain, some heavy; winds will be locally damaging</phrase>

            <US>Cloudy</US>

        </day>

. .

</location>

<location id="IRCS">

        <day name="Wednesday">

etc.

</location>

.

.

.

.

</forecast>

## Select the element with the attribute I want

##

#set($itemlist= $myXML.find('/forecast/location[@id=\'MROC\']'))

##

## Since we already found the location node what is to follow is to itirate over the children

### 

#foreach($items in $itemlist.iterator()) ##this is correct and gives me the right string with all the information

#set($item = $xmltool.parse($items))

## Note the $item.size is 1.  It gives me one string with all the following information:

##8 6 18 42.0 E 20 0 Rain, some heavy; winds will be locally damaging Cloudy 9 7 19 43.0 E1 21 2 Rain Cloudy 10 8 20 44.0 E2 22 2 winds Cloudy 11 9 21 46.0 E4 24 42 winds will be locally damaging Cloudy ...

##etc.

##

## To access the data on each location I have to do:  

<td><strong>Day Name 1:</strong> $!{item.day.name}</td> ----prints out ---> Wednesday

<td><strong>HDD:</strong> $!{item.day.hdd[0].text}</td> ----prints out ---> 20

<td><strong>Day Name 2:</strong> $!{item.day[1].name}</td>  ----prints out ---> Thursday

#end

My question is ----> With the above approach I have to write the whole HTML document and put each individual variable in its place:  $$!{item.day[1].name}, etc.

Is there a way, I can itirate over each segment (8 6 18 42.0 E 20 0 Rain, some heavy; winds will be locally damaging Cloudy) of the above results, keeping their consistency and just print out each child of the list?

Thanks,

Alex
