Title: Get data from xml file in zip
Post by: StarGeek on October 19, 2018, 06:22:15 PM
I thought something like this had been touched upon at one point but I can't seem to find the thread.

Is it possible to create a user defined tag that would read a specific XML file in a zip file?  Am I wrong in believing this is what is done with files such as Docx?

I was thinking it might be possible with a external call to 7zip or with Archive::Zip but wanted to check if there was other ways.

There is no way to create a user-defined tag to do this, although this is an interesting idea... I could maybe think about adding this feature if you thought it could be useful.

No, not really worth it overall.
