Do you want to retrieve that XML using a http get on the collection?

Let's assume a get method.
Take a look at my mail "Re: Webdav Servlet programming." from 10 aug.
That SimpleServlet is an example of how to extend the default WebDavServlet.
You want to change that displayDirectoryBrowsing method to generate xml.
Make the loop over the children recursive (Enumeration resources =
object.enumerateChildren(); )
and get the properties from the descriptor
(currentDescriptor.getProperties())
a NodeProperty has a name, namespace and value.
That's it...

If you have a question, just ask...
