Regarding smalltalk

I just parsed the DAML sentence using XMLParser. Next step i have to do is that i have to collect all the parsed elements and store it in a temporary variable. So please anyone tell me the syntax for this one.

What the DAML sentence ? a DAML sentence ?...

I think you just have to select elements of interest that are
"returned" by the XMLParser.
Inspect (cmd+i) or explore (cmd+shift+i) it to see where are the
elements you want...

something like:
XMLParser parseDocument: 'yourDAMLSentence' ... <- cmd+shift+i when selected
after you can store the result in a var, navigate in the tree
structure while collecting in a collection the elements you're
interested in...

My aim is to collect all the elements including attributes and attribute values from that parsed tree in a sequeanceable order.

show us the result you'd like for the example sentence...

Not sure (and not expert), but I think you should use the SAXParser so
that you navigate the xml tree and do whatever you want with
elements/attributes... The DOMParser is actually building a full tree
for further exploration... can be long and you have to process it
again to get more information... I dit that once to collect wheteher
data for a large xml file... The process is maybe not obvious, you
need to subclass SAXHandler with say DAMLHandler, where you'll
redefine messages likes characters: startDocument: endElement:
startElement:attribute:list:... but the better is probably to
subclass, then you put a self halt in the method
startDocument: and little by little you see how it works... Also,
you'll probably have to create a class where you'll store the
information you want (Meteo class in my case...)...
Sorry, but I cannot help you more on this... really busy for some monthes :'(

ps: I joined my meteo handlers, of course it won't work but it will
give you another example of SAXHandler (that the XMLDOMParser which is
a particular case of SAXHandler)... soory for the bad code :p
