yes, that's DOM. The sole point in its favour is that it is nearly the same awkward nightmare on .NET, C++, JavaScript. Learn it in one place, and you get to hate it everywhere. > With JDOM, I got the results I wanted right away, maybe it just fits the way > my brain works :-) I will take it! Some people say you shouldn't use add on stuff like Xom, JDOM or even log4j, when sun bundles all you need into the JVM. But if you delve deeper, you find that what gets bundled is often mediocre and dated, and that your life is better if you use open source libraries you can ship. The main reason to stick with the built in stuff is for faster downloads. I hope JDOM works for you, -steve
