Joel,

What I need to do is verify that specific values exist in the response. 
For example, I expect the duration to be 30.  So in ruby I can use the 
following:

val=recursive_select( "duration", parsed)
assert_equal(30,val,"Item NOT found")

Your function returns the following which is great because I need to be 
able to see all of the values for duration.

value30pathTODAdBreaksAdBreak0duration
value15pathTODAdBreaksAdBreak0Ad0duration
value15pathTODAdBreaksAdBreak0Ad1duration

Any suggestions on how I would go about verifying that duration is '30'? 
or duration is '15' in an assertion?  Do I need to use the strip method 
to grab the values? I'm just trying to find the best way to handle this.

Thanks again for your assistance.
