it is a really simple textparser. the configuration looks for example like
this:
<map>
  <data name="offer/residence">
    <begin>&lt;td bgcolor="#0099cc"</begin>
    <end>&lt;/b</end>
  </data>
  <iterate name="offer/params">
    <begin>&lt;form</begin>
    <end>&lt;script&gt;</end>
    <divider>&lt;input type="hidden"</divider>
    <data name="value">
      <begin>value="</begin>
      <end>"</end>
    </data>
    <data name="name">
      <begin>name="</begin>
      <end>"</end>
    </data>
  </iterate>
</map>

as you see, for now i am using it as dirty html parser. and it works so far
for me.
the tags <begin> and <end> defines the border for the string which goes then
to the xml. the name attribute on the <data/> element defines the element
name inside the resulting xml. the parser starts searching the next <begin/>
content after the position the last <end/> content was found inside the
parsing document (in my case html). <iterate/> is useful for tables, where a
string defines the <divider/> between the iterations.

sounds nice, thanx for the idea ...

lots of thanks,
