The IBM XML Toolkit (which is free) contains an XML parser, so take a
look at that before you go to the trouble of writing your own.

showed me how to send a SOAP request to the HTTPD server. It was much
simplier than I thought. Of course, the XML coming in looks like h*ll,
but that is a whole 'nuther problem. I can use Enterprise COBOL to parse
it (or even write a simplistic REXX parser). Now to read up on something
so that I can implement something like SOAP::Lite in REXX or <shudder>
Enterprise COBOL (or maybe HLASM).
