	package foo;
	use Meta::Xml::Parsers::Movie qw();
	my($parser)=Meta::Xml::Parsers::Movie->new();
	$parser->parsefile($file);

This object parses a movie XML file and plugs the data into a database. This is much better than using DOM type techniques since it doesnt mean that the entire data will be at RAM in any single time (more streamlined).

	new($)
	handle_start($$)
	handle_end($$)
	handle_endchar($$$)
	TEST($)

new($)

This gives you a new object for a parser.

set_dbi($$)

This method will set the dbi handle that will be used to insert the data into the database.

handle_start($$)

This will handle start tags.

handle_end($$)

This will handle end tags. This currently does nothing.

handle_endchar($$$)

This will handle actual text. This currently, according to context, sets attributes for the various objects.

TEST($)

Test suite for this module.

Error(3), Meta::Ds::Array(3), Meta::Utils::Time(3), Meta::Xml::Parsers::Collector(3), strict(3)

-what about simultaneously inserting data to two databases ?

-watch the hack in movie.titles.title.name (the .=) - this is because this handler is called more than once for a single string - how can I bypass this shit ?. In addition - why does the parser change charcter entities (&) in the source XML to actual character (&) when giving them to me ? Is my string Unicode ?
