What does FileMakers XML format look like?
This is easy to answer. Take any filemaker file you’ve got with a few records and a few fields, and export it to XML with no XSLT file selected, then open the file in a text editor. I’m going to go through this in much the same way as I did before, by opening the XML out a few steps at a time. Take a lok at the code below. First of all we can see that there is a inital comment line. This is actually called the “XML Declaration” but for our purposes for the moment we can ignore it. Then the second line is the start of the data, and contains the first node ( called the root node ).
