From reading the list archives I'm seeing a lot of people bash expat and lean toward libxml2, I just wanted to get the consensus before I commit a project to using one or the other. Depends a bit on what you want to do with it. If you are processing huge amounts of xml data, you can get away with much lower memory consuption with expat. But if you must have a tree representation of your XML, using the domxml extension is probably better. - Stig -- Stig Sæther Bakken, Fast Search Transfer ASA, Trondheim, Norway http://pear.php.net/wishlist.php/ssb -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
