Here is an example using XML::LibXML. There are many ways to use the module but I find that Xpath expressions are really powerful once you get your head around them.

use XML::LibXML;

my $string = q|<?xml version="1.0"?>
<IPDetails>
  <productName>IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for Applications</product
+Name>
  <vendorName>IBM</vendorName>
  <version>8.6.0.0</version>
</IPDetails>|;

my $tree = XML::LibXML->load_xml(string => $string);

open (my $out_xml,">",'out.xml') or die "with nice message: $!";

print $out_xml qq|All the hardcoded stuff\n|;

my @nodes = $tree->findnodes('/IPDetails');
for my $node (@nodes) {
    my $product_name = $node->findvalue('productName');
    my $vendor_name = $node->findvalue('vendorName');
    my $version = $node->findvalue('version');
    print $out_xml qq|<Package Name="$product_name" Version="$version"
+>\n|;
    print $out_xml qq|<Property Name="Publisher" Value="$vendor_name">
+\n|;
    print $out_xml qq|</Package>\n|;
}

print $out_xml qq|End stuff\n|;
close $out_xml;

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
