    Hi folks.

    This is my first project on SF and my first OpenSource project too. My english is poor, but i'll try my very best. So if I make some mistakes, hurry on and say it to me. I can stand it!

    The todo list so far:

    1. the german comments in the code must be translated.
    2. we must decide, what we want as a aim: a full XML-Parser or just a 99% working substitute of innerHTML.
    3. Should there be a variant, that produces only the code of a documentFragment? Should be faster in cases you have always the same XHTML to hang in the DOM tree.

    Other suggestions?

      I just need a platform-agnostic DOM parser that works with a DOM object.

      I use a DOM as a data vector between the front and back tiers of an enterprise system.

      So I want to easily drill into the DOM using Javascript and determine the hierarchy of elements and their attributes.

      I want to re-arrange parts of the DOM per user which (the user currently moves the elements of a Treeview (YUI library) to represent the DOM structure).

      I want to reset their values as well as build/remove parts of the DOM.

      This is part of AJAX (XAJAX) that sends/receives the DOM between Javascript (front end) and PHP (back end) for storage.

        Perhaps you can rewrite DOMtoString to DOMtoArray. Means, that the DOM-Elements are not written in a String but in an multi-row-array, that you can easy browse and process by the array functions of JS.

        Then there must be a ArrayToDOM function too...

        I for myself have not enough time the next two months to program it (I'm still writing on my thesis)...

        Perhaps you're able to program it building up on my code.
