Stefan, I have implemented a visitor pattern for JAXEN but I've been so busy lately that I have not had the time to check it into the CSV repository. I hope to do this by the end of the week. I also use the visitor to translate it into another query languages. I can send you my snapshot if you cannot wait until I check the stuff in Regards
