Another XML Failure

[Damein]

So I've got this XML file I'm writing up and I have it designed like this:

 

?<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<movies>
  <item id="001" name="I Know What You Did Last Summer" quality="4" genre="Horror"</item>
</movies>

 

So I want to be able to pull the ID, quality and genre of each item listed in the XML... but I can't seem to get it to work. All the examples I've looked at find the node because the item is listed like: "<id>001</id>" but nothing I found could read an XML like this, where each entry has multiple items in it...

 

Thanks for the help if you can!

You missed this:

 

 <item id="001" name="I Know What You Did Last Summer" quality="4" genre="Horror"></item>

 

Or:

 <item id="001" name="I Know What You Did Last Summer" quality="4" genre="Horror"/>

Another easy way to see if it's valid, is to open the '.xml' file in IE...if it's well formed, it will display the structure, if not, it's only text/empty.
