Parsing almost *any* text representation is rarely trivial in my
experience. It's probably the #1 situation where inconsistencies and
ambiguities in computer systems arise. Having said that, XML is much
better structured than most text files! :)

My recommendation would be to use an existing XML parser. Don't bother
writing your own - it'll be buggier than an existing popular
implementation where people have undoubtedly spent a large amount of
time and effort on it.

Dave
