Update: Xparse(JavaScript XML Parser)

I've updated my JavaScript based XML parser at:
http://www.jeremie.com/Dev/XML/

I added lots of little support things and it now correctly supports all of
the goofy formatting things like:
<tag
name
=
"value" id =
"abc123"
>
the tags contents
</tag

>

It's basically done with the exception of full error reporting and
processing any DTD related information. I'm waiting to add DOM support
before I attempt to tackle either of those, and the DOM support is waiting
for the release of the DOM ECMAScript Core API definitions(Appendix C in the
current WD). So in the meantime I'm going to concentrate on my JavaScript
based XSL parser :)

If you're willing to wrap your XML data in a <TEXTAREA> or escape it into a
JavaScript string variable, Xparse is a slick and fast way to manipulate it
on the client end.

Comments/ideas welcome!
