Get XML data from a url?

Hi,
We have a network monitoring process which will return XML data based on a 'normal looking' HTTP query -- for instance,
" http://10.4.24.229:18234/Agents" actually returns XML... I've written a perl tool which uses XML: 0683p000009M9p6.pngmart to pull/parse that
data and load it into various mysql tables.
I was hoping to do the same thing using Talend basically as a way to demonstrate how one of our 'real' projects could have
been easily and quickly accomplished w/talend.
Unfortunately, I don't actually see a way to accomplish this... I don't see a way using the XML components to specify a url.
I'm hoping that I'm just missing something -- I have about 2 days worth of experience with talend, so the possibility seems
very likely...
Thanks!

Hello
If I understantd well your problem, tFileFetch (Internet family) will allow you to save your XML file to disc.
You can then use a tFileInputXML to parse your XML file (link them with a "Then Run" link).
Am I right ?

Is it possible to dynamically read an XML file located on the Internet as opposed to my computer?
(Same question as the previous post that did not seem to have been answered).

Hello together,
you should post your question in the "Usage, Operation" and not the "Installation" forum.
Anyway:
You should use an tInput component to read the information (url adress) and connect the tFileFetch with a tFlowToIterate. With this job you could read the urls defined in your database.
