I am not really sure how to parse files with PHP XML other than DOM
XML. Unfortunetely, I have run into a few problems with size and was
told that for the type of parsing I am doing I would be better using
event driven parsing like SAX.

Below I have a simple example of XML similar (although much much
smaller) to the one I am using for real.

XML:

<?xml...
<root>
<name age="25">Martyn</name>
<name age="24">Neil</name>
<name age="24">Robbie</name>
</root>

All I want to do is to output them as:

Martyn (25)
Neil (24)
Robbie (24)

How would I do this uisng something like SAX / EXPAT? I found tutorials
but didnt really understand them enough to know if I was looking up the
correct thing. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers
