in reply to XML Simple Charset Q?

This is perhaps off-topic, but I was wondering why your XML is not as follows:

<rec id = 'F600' type = 'J'> <author>A. S. Bommarius</author> <author>K. Drauz</author> <author>W. Hummel</author> <author>M.-R. Kula</author> <author>C. Wandrey</author> (snippage) </rec>
--t. alex
but my friends call me T.

    Because its output from endnote and I'd have to go and split the single author field that I get. Since, for the application I'm writing, we don't want to sort by author, just search on and display the author list, I can't be bothered to split the field up and then have to reintegrate it for the display.

    (Its a good question though - and I have thought about it, if I get my other XML entity question sorted I may revisit this as there could be sme advanatage if I did this and used XML Twig)
