Hi David,

Yes, now I think I get it.

Instead of:

    <faculty class="academic" id="sbeacon">
        <name>Shirley Beacon</name>
        <email>sb...@st...</email>
    </faculty>

I now have:

    <class id="academic">
        <faculty id="sbeacon">
            <name>Shirley Beacon</name>
            <email>sb...@st...</email>
        </faculty>
    </class>

Doesn't seem needed, now, but thanks. A few other quick questions...First, do I need the <root> node? Does it have to be called 'root'? 

Also, I have seen a few examples showing how to use the browser to parse xml. Should I consider this? Advantages/disadvantages?

Thanks! I'm out of questions (for now), I promise!
