Amen, I hear you, and personally prefer XML-aware tools in my general work. However, I find that for perl novices, installing Bundle::CPAN, running cpan-shell, setting up CPAN mirrors, finding and installing bundles, etc. is frequently too much to ask. As a result, when posting simple scripts online, I tend to use scripts with few or no dependencies. Also, while using XML::XPath is an easy way to do searches, document changes involve a bit more understanding of DTDs, callback parsing, etc. --kirby ------------------------ Yahoo!
