I meant that a text editor would have to be enough to create and modify 
markup. I hadn't realised that PHP has XML-handling functions inbuilt 
and was thinking that to parse it you meant having to modify someone 
else's parsing code. I see the inbuilt functions now. Nevertheless, the 
editing and appearance of XML rule it out for me.
