The current DOM implementation is a bit disappointing in that it doesn't provide namespace information. I presume DOM Core level 2 would be a good target to head for. It would be most convenient to do it on top of a SAX2 implementation in order to get the namespace information, rather than redoing the namespace handling purely for the DOM layer. Of course, a SAX2 API would make me very happy. -- Edd
