It sounds like something that might be very usefull.

However, to stream your content, wouldn't it be better to use the
SAX specific startElement and endElement methods? They look
like a nicer solution to me, however (looking at the code) also do
not handle namespaces correctly but fixing this might be easier
than fixing the dom4j specific writeOpen and writeClose methods?

I used the XMLWriter because it seemed pretty simple. Currently, I just 
using the ServletOutputStream to print out similar to the way the 
XMLWriter does it. This gets sent to the browser for a client side 
transformation.

Off topic: One strange thing however, if I send:

<elem>
  <child/>
  <child/>
  <child/>
</elem>

it shows up to the browser transformation (both IE and 
Firefox/Transformix) as:

<elem>
  <child/>
  <child>
    <child/>
  </child>
</elem>

If I alert the XML it is formed as I sent. I /fixed/ it by adding a 
space before all empty element end tags (does not matter for my needs). 
Don't know what the deal is, but just thought I would share just in case.

best,
-Rob
