Do you need to optimize communication (bytes sent/received) or CPU (time spent parsing)? If it is communication, try compressing the XML with a standard algorithm. See the "content-coding" part of HTTP 1.1 for some samples. If it is CPU, benchmark XML parsers. Also, use an event-based parser (SAX) to build your data structures directly. With a DOM-based parser, you will build objects twice -- once for the DOM and once for your application. wunder -- Walter R. Underwood wunder@i... wunder@b...
