One technique would be to pipe the XML/HTML output from curl through an XSLT style-sheet processor like Xalan, which would pick off the data you wanted and output it to a simple text file, or pipe that through awk for additional formatting.
If you wanted to parse into a W3C Dom, you could of course use Java, and even run the Java Rhino javascript processor. But I agree that it might be nice if someone ported SpiderMonkey to z/OS. The larger issue would be implementing all of the system services bindings that you would want. Sounds like a large effort to me. What about REXX? Does anyone know if there are bindings for Xerces-C or Xml System Services?
