Wow! It's interesting in other respects too. The library makes extensive use of XPath calls all over the place. If we actually read some of the stuff into proper data structures (rather than just holding in DOM) we could probably cut down times all over the place. I'll re-wrap 1.1 tonight and make it official unless anyone objects between now and then. Cheers, Berin
