[SOLVED]Importing examples from an XML file into RapidMiner Studio

Chiko

Hi,
I am attempting to read examples from an XML data file in RapidMiner studio by using the Read XML operator. If I test the input file with just a single example, the import works fine(i.e one <review>....</review>). However, the minute I increase the number of examples to 2, I am however encountering the following error:

XML Error: The markup in the document following the root element must be well formed. The format of the XML file is along these lines:

<review>
<unique_id>1234
</unique_id>
<unique_id>xyz1234
</unique_id>
<product_name>
</product_name>
....
</review>
....

In short I have many reviews in one XML file and it is impractical to try and import each of them individually.

Thanks in advance.

for others benefit, it turns out that the input XML file had special characters in it, so all I had to do was to replace all occurrences of & by &amp; occurrences of " by &quot; and occurrences of ' by &apos;
