Dear list,

is there any option to convert automatically webpage content to xml in PD? I would like to create some interactive installations based on web content, and still looking for a simple way.

how do you convert webpage content to XML in *any language*?

attached is a very simplistic example, exploiting the underspecification of your problem space.

the patch uses mrpeach/net and mrpeach/binfile to demonstration purposes (fetching the HTML from a live website, saving the XML to a file), but the actual "conversion" is done in Pd-vanilla.

i haven't tested it excessively, but the conversion i did test (the one encoded into the example patch) validates as correct XML.
