Getting the Type of an XML Node in a TPL ?

I use a container that has an or clause, so that the user can add any of 5 different items in any order. It creates XML like this:

[html]

Anchor
Stuff

ANCHOR
FLASH

ANCHOR

ANCHOR
HTNML CODE

ANCHOR
HEADER

ANCHOR
NAV MENU

ANCHOR
LINK

imageanchor

Anchor2
<p>Paragraph</p>

[/html]

So, I want to iterate through container, for each choice and generate the appropriate HTML.

But I am not certain how to tell if a Choice is a Paragraph, Image, etc ?

I was trying
[html]

[/html]

but that does not seem correct since that is not the value, but the name of the sub-element.

Tips/Pointers/RTFMs appreciated.

[html]<br>my $choice_type = ($Choice->get_node_list())[0]->type();<br>

...[/html]

So I cannot use the standard iw_value or anything, just parse it myself ?
