DESCRIPTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

XML::EasyOBJ lets you take an XML page and essentially create an object out of 
it. Each element becomes a method, which makes it really easy to navigate an 
XML page (if you know the structure). The motivation behind this module was to 
create an interface so simple that anyone who knows the basic functionality of 
Perl can learn how to read data from an XML document in less than 10 minutes. 

This module is also a time saver even if you are familiar with the other modules 
available, but want something simple so that you can throw together a script in 
a few minutes (unless of course you know the DOM like the back of your hand). 


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REQUIREMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

XML::EasyOBJ uses XML::DOM. XML::DOM is available from CPAN (www.cpan.org).
