UH, duh. Isn't that one of the reasons why Open Source exists? There are pretty decent parsers out there already, e.g. expat http://expat.sourceforge.net/ SAX http://www.saxproject.org/ You could contribute to these projects by improving the error reporting ... Why would you need to write your own XML parser? BobLQ "puzzled" -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-lpsg
