Here's an example of a submission of data: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE cipresml SYSTEM "cipres.dtd">
<cipresml version="0.0.1" sessionID="1" status="0" user="rvosa" servic
+e="Repository">
    <submission>
        <taxa tBID="Taxablock">
            <taxon tID="taxonID">
                <name>taxon name</name>
            </taxon>
        </taxa>
    </submission>
</cipresml>

In this case there are three tables involved: the sessions table (which stores the sessionID, the username and a timestamp), the taxa table (which stores the tBID, and the sessionID as a foreign key) and the taxon table (which stores the tID, the name, the tBID and the sessionID - the last two are foreign keys referencing the taxa table).

Here's an example of a query, in SQL, that I want to result in a structure like that descending from the <submission> element: 
SELECT name FROM taxon WHERE tBID='Taxablock' AND sessionID=1 AND tID=
+'taxonID';
