I must admit I use XEmacs and the psgml-mode. It reads the DTD, and prompts you with the valid elements/attributes. Try loading a HTML-document with it to get an impression of how it works. > is it possible for me to construct an xml document in > memory (using the DOM packages? the SAX packages?)

Sure, but it doesn't sound any simpler to me than using a text editor, if all you want is *one* conformant document. > is there anything that will help me to write a valid xml document > when my xml data is in multiple locations and my dtd is not static? What's the DTD? How much transformation and data reshuffling will you be doing? I'd normally grab Python and SAX for this kind of thing, and just push out the xml sequentially. -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
