I think that Michael Kay's SAXON tools [1] contain a SAX driver for iterating through a DOM tree, and I know that James Clark has a SAX application XMLTest [2] that produces a normalised form of XML called "Canonical XML" -- you could use the two of those together to convert any part of a DOM tree to text. That said, it would probably be easier and more efficient for you to create a generic DOMWriter -- it's really a one-hour exercise if you understand XML, the DOM, and Java well enough.
