| Jul 18, 2013 at 7:35 | comment | added | MagePsycho | Guys thanks for your input so far. But I can't use any extension as the server is not on our control. So I was thinking if there is harcoded way to get the values from that path, may be using grep/eval etc? Thanks again. | |

| Jul 17, 2013 at 15:51 | comment | added | MagePsycho | @CharlesDuffy is there a way to get the value may be using regex pattern or else? | |
| Jul 17, 2013 at 15:48 | comment | added | Charles Duffy | @MagePsycho bash does not have any built-in support for XML parsing. You either need to have a tool that does (xmlstarlet, xsltproc, a modern Python, etc), or you can't parse XML correctly. | |
