I use the dom.d in the long misc github link. (I wrote it for myself) I find it very convenient but there are some downsides: 1) it is slow with large files 2) it eats a lot of memory, I think about 150 bytes per node, plus the actual data (text and attributes). A 1 MB xml file can easily eat 10 MB of ram. 3) it isn't very well documented, but if you've used javascript dom, most your knowledge can carry over. So if you're working with a lot of data, you don't want to use it. But if you're using smaller files and want a lot of convenience with stuff like css selectors and convenience functions, or want to deal with poorly written html, it is something you can try. It requires the files dom.d and characterencodings.d from my github. To parse xml while checking for well formedness and utf-8: auto document = new Document(); document.parse(strXml, true, true); To parse html while correcting for tags soup and wrong character encodings: auto document = new Document(); document.parseGarbage(strHtml);

I don't do XML working with D, but with Python. Actually I'd prefer never to have to work with XML at all but,=E2=80=A6 After many different Python oriented (either Python implemented or C coded Python extensions), the tide has now turned to simply using libxml2 and libxslt using an adaptor library, lxml. I am assuming if I did do XML work in D, I would connect to these same libraries just as Python does. --=20 Russel. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.winder ekiga.n= et 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: russel winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
