    anybody know of a good xml parser, one that would allow me to extract, say for instance, Title, as in:

    Title: 'Video clip musical de 'Hotel Transilvania'

    i am looking for a good algorithm to extract a couple of values out of the xml file that i get back from youtube after sending them a query. they have several versions of this xml resource, but the one i am using for the few items to extract from, is all i need for the moment plus response time is instant over my dsl. the other query versions they serve are a little slower to respond.

    i am using borland delphi 6 thank you.

    Code:
      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

    by golly, i think i've got it!

    edit: don't got it. nothing seems to work for me. looks like i'll be writing my own customized parser.
