Looks very nice, thank you! and it works, at least for my sample XML.

I'm not familiar with this handler construction:

'div[@class="event"]'

It looks rather XSL-ish. Is there some explanation of how that works? The reason I ask (sheepishly) is that my pseudo XML is simpler than the real stuff, meaning it has sub-levels that I want to parse, e.g.:

<h3 class="current-day">Thursday, February 2</h3> <div class="event"> <div class="title">Event 1</div> <span class="time">7:30pm</span> <span class="location">Main Street</span> </div> <div class="event"> <div class="title">Event 2</div> <span class="time">9pm</span> <span class="location">Green Street</span> </div>

Sorry not to be more detailed in my original post. Much appreciated.
