I'd like to thank everyon who responded to my question. Without
exception, the answer is "element".
Also, for those who mentioned that the XML sample I posted was not
well-formed, this is understood. What I got from the developer was
more a "proof of concept" xml file that was created in NotePad as a
point of discussion. The developer has already committed to sending
me the "real" xml code once they are past figuring it out.
Again, thanks.
