iOS XMLParser - get url

I would like to parse an XML tag that looks something like this: 

<image href="..."/>

I'm currently using BlockRSSParser to do it.

I've tried to do it in the following method:

- (void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser foundCharacters:(NSString *)string
{

    // String is empty: 

}

What is the correct way to parse XML like this using XMLParser?

You get attribute values in the parser:didStartElement:namespaceURI:qualifiedName:attributes: method:

- (void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser didStartElement:(NSString *)elementName namespaceURI:(NSString *)namespaceURI qualifiedName:(NSString *)qualifiedName attributes:(NSDictionary *)attributeDict {
    if ([elementName isEqualToString:@"image"]) {
        NSString *href = attributes[@"href"];
    }
}
