Hi Martin, thanks for getting back to me.

Basically I was looking at using another parser rather than the MS
one, and was looking for advice on what ones were available out there
for the client-side, specifically in terms of grabbing the data that I
have and presenting it in arrays. I haven't had a chance to look at
your suggestion yet but have also been looking at XML for Script along
with a number of other possible solutions. I'm hoping to keep the
processing off of the server for now but might alter this in the
future and the idea of using MSXML on the server isn't one that I've
come across before... do you know if this would work on a *nix server?

The program works a treat on my set up which is IE on XP with the
MSXML parser installed but I get an error if running on a machine
without the MSXML parser because it's an activeX thingy is pulls up an
active X error, which I suppose is fair enough ;-)

Eventually I'll be using the arrays to do some calculations so I need
that structure. A bit of the output will be in the form of an SVG so I
was looking at using the adobe SVG plug-in's abilities to parse
XML...?

Thanks again,

Dom
