 Great, everybody is writing it's own parser :-) ... Yeah designing a 
correct interface on top of it isn't a piece of cake, that's exactly the
job done in W3C's DOM (Document Object Model) working group, and
I suggest reading it before redesigning your interfaces.

  See my previous post, I count you in.

  For W3C licence I guess it's Ok, for Jim Clark's expat parser,
I'm not sure ... 
  But let's discuss that on a separate channel, I hate the idea of
wasting the time of people not interested in this subject, they
already got enough E-mail on this subject.
