a 2 second google...
<http://www.google.com/search?q=invoice+dtd>
http://www.ofx.net/ofx/specview/INVOICE.cont.html
this is pretty good site...seems to also be backed by Intuit, M$, etc...
"The Open Financial Exchange specification is publicly available for
implementation by any financial institution or vendor, and is being used by
CheckFree, Intuit and Microsoft as the primary mechanism for supporting
financial data exchange in their products and services beginning later this
year. "
Seems like supporting this would be a good selling point for FT...only
bummer is that it is very non-open source...register to download the spec??
WTF?

leon, what i would suggest that you do is provide an interface for
implementing whatever XML DTD on the back end...btw, what parser does PHP
provide support for? this is another nice thing about java...support for
SAX2...;-) i'm doing a dynamic database map builder for Turbine right now
and SAX2 makes it really trivial to implement...very cool...
