So you have attachments which are XML files and you want to parse them and display their
content in a wiki table ?
If so, I'd suggest you use the {{groovy}} macro and use the groovy xml slurper to do
the work. You should be able to write this in less than 10 lines :)

Thanks, got that up and running in only a few minutes! Now I'd like a way to have the
user click on one level of the xml hierarchy I display and have it expand to show the
children of that section (I have the hierarchy iteration code, just not the
"gui" code). Something graphically like a macro error (the one that says
"Failed to execute macro: groovy") and then you click to expand and view the
content.
Thanks!
-Mike
