Subject: REXML basic question


Hi.  I've just started to play with REXML ...

     $ cat x.xml
     <?xml version="1.0"?>
     <doc title="FooBar", directory="foobar">
       <section name="S1">
         <title>Foo</title>
          <body>text goes here </body>
       </section>

       <section name="S2">
         <title>Bar</title>
           <body>text goes here </body>
       </section>
     </doc>

How do I iterate over the sections?  I have:

         @doc = Document.new File.new( "x.xml" )
         @doc.elements.each("tutorial/doc") { |elem|
           section = elem.attributes["name"]
         }

Gives me "S1" and "S2".  How do I iterate over these
sections to get <title> and <body>?

I am missing something simple...
