Provided as-is, with no warranties as to if it works properly or not. You're to blame if you use this.

Usage

See example usage in (test.txt), but basically:

• use ParseXml(xml, ignoreWhitespace, ignoreAdvanced) to parse the XML
• use FindElement() or FindElements() to find stuff/navigate
• use FlattenElement() to get text values

Not tested on a very high number of XML file samples, but should deal with the basics.

Limitations

Does not really support:

• parsing (but somewhat gracefully deals with it)
• Name spaces (.Name will be e.g. ns:foo)
