Hello, DomXML is a large improvement over Sablot. If you take a close look at XML, you'll see that XML is used effectively with some technologies : SAX (Simple Api for XML), DOM (Document Object Modelling), XSL (Extensible styleshhet language).
The DOMxml php extension (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.domxml.php) is a wrapper for PHP usage of the libxml2 (xmlsoft.org) and libxslt1 (xmlsoft.org/XSLT) that helps you load XML files into DOM trees, manipulate them using standard DOM API and transform them using XSL (with a blazing speed, also). You should compile your PHP version with DOM support (we have some RPMS created for PHP with DOMXML support for Redhat 8.0, but they are not released yet to the public as they are experimental). I hope you have a better start now.
