Well yes you are right!
I can't control the sending side.
The app i'm writing just accepts incoming xml messages. Like the ones
above.
When i receive a message I parse it and print the information.
I know how to parse both xml messages.
What i want is to distinguish them so that i can trigger the
appropriate parsing method.
