You can pull descriptions. Take a look at my post on How to Use the Flick API. You may find it useful.

Hi Gary. Thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate it.

The parentElement must've slipped by me when I was documenting the options. I'll get that documented on the usage page when I get the chance. Thanks for pointing that out.

Can you link me to your XML page so that I can take a look at the entire document? Thanks.

Kyle – Great plug-in! Thank you. One suggestion and a question. Suggestion, it took me a while to figure out the parentElement: 'item' default option in your script and that I could change that option on the page. I suggest adding that to your usage page as an available option. It's key to everything working correctly. And a question, is there a way to make XML in the following format list all papers and options correctly. I haven't been able to make it work using a combination of attr and parentElement options. Papers is the top-level parent node and the child nodes are each type of paper in my web-to-print application.

You can ignore my last post, i figured it out, and actually what was causing me some problems is around line 130 in the jparse script file, i was getting a console error, i just commented it out and i am all good now.

Do you have an example of using the attr option? i am trying to pull a value of a tag that contains my url to a podcast. i have set it as

attr: [{elem: 'enclosure', attr: 'url'}]

but i can't seem to get it to pull the value, actually i can't get it to pull any values. example of the XML
