I would like to receive data from a VLC HTTP request. The request url is in this form

http://127.0.0.1:8080/requests/status.xml

Above is an example of what it returns. How can I create variables from the nodes? I tried to use the example in a post I saw that uses iXml but I could not get it to work. To be clear for example how can I create a variable for a node like <state></state> which should result in "stopped"? Thanks

If need only state, the simplest way to get it is a regular expression. Or if don't want to learn regular expressions, use function find and str.get.
If need a single XML element, usually is used XPath, but this XML is too simple. Just get the child element.

str xml=

;;;<state>stopped</state>
;</root>

IXml x._create
x.FromString(xml)
IXmlNode e = x.RootElement.Child("state")
out e.Value
