Don't get me wrong...but all of what you mentioned can be done from flat-files...heck, even I wrote a script that allows me to multi-template & table my data from flat files (without the bulk of additional record and field tags). This is really only a concern when dealing with large data sources. The XML markup is a p.i.t.a. and incrediblely redundant.
I'll check the page on Saxon out...no guarentees that I'll convert though.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
