Similarly XSLT; someone familiar with procedural programming might come to XSLT and say, "when I see the Poem start tag I want to put out a <div> tag, and when I see the Poem end tag I want a </p> tag"Funnily enough, having used XML, exclusively within the XSLT programming environment, for almost a decade, I've never thought programmatically about start tags and end tags, nor for that matter SAX events etc. For me XML is a tree - how it's (de-)serialised is a separate matter from the programmatic manipulation, and frankly one I don't get deeply involved in, save when I'm trying to work out why the (x)HTML[4|5] doesn't work ;-)
