Yes, it's an interesting history. I started off by building the document tree with MSXML, and wrote a TreeWalker class to make it easier to process the tree serially (unlike SUN's TreeWalker which supports a getNext() interface, mine did a callback at each node); then I realised most of my applications were single-pass, so I changed it to do essentially the same thing on top of an event-based interface like SAX. Later other people asked for a non-serial interface, so I put the ability to walk the DOM back in. (I've now got it working to be independent of the DOM implementation, with drivers for SUN and Docuverse: not yet released though). Mike K xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
