what i want to do :

i have entries, in a list format :[[key1,value],[key2,value],[
key3,value]], value]

example :
[["route","23"],["equip","jr2"],["time","3pm"]],"my first value"]
[["route","23"],["equip","jr1"],["time","3pm"]],"my second value"]
[["route","23"],["equip","jr2"],["time","3pm"]],"my third value"]
[["route","24"],["equip","jr2"],["time","3pm"]],"my fourth value"]
[["route","25"],["equip","jr2"],["time","3pm"]],'"my fifth value"]

the [XML] tree i want in the end would be :

which looks rather similar to your post, don't you think? check that thread

can someone please with the code for this.

Show us your efforts, and we'd be glad to help you correcting/enhancing
them.

Or use PayPal and pay one of the guys here - my hourly fee is 50€, and
less than one hour work can't be booked.

He!

Don't tell people in public that you're working at 50€/hour! That's gonna
destruct the market. It's better if they believe there's nothing below 80€,
then they're more likely to ask for the people who know their real value.

I remember a few years ago, I posted something like this to the list,
and got flamed 6 ways from Sunday for having the audacity to propose
this. 50 Euros/hour is a very good rate by the way.. if more consultants
would offer their services this inexpensively, then perhaps it might even
be competitive with outsourcing.

certain people think that the mere thought of getting paid for
contributing to freely available software is outrageously immoral...

not sure about that, though: increasingly, outsourcing means paying
someone to sign up for a hotmail account and keep sending increasingly
annoying mails to fredrik lundh until he gives up and points to some
ready-made code that might solve the customer's problem (if I had a
dollar for every such mail etc etc).
