[Rails] Re: Huge XML Template

Hi,
Thanks for reply.

The same xml template will generate every time, but only some parts are
customized .

The main motto is the total generation will go behind the scenes and
write to a new xml file each time .
I should be able write some ruby code , there some parts where i need to
do looping.
so I am expecting Ruby + xml file .
what about REXML ??

thanks
sri
