The purpose of this whole thing is to build an online HTML editor with simple support for TABLEs, Ps, SPANs, Bs, As, and a few pre-defined CSS styles.

After the HTML is parsed, it is regenerated from the tree for viewing in a preview window. I have the DIVs because I want a way to highlight the various elements of the page. When the user clicks (or double clicks) inside one of these DIVs, it will refresh the page with another parameter ($nodeid) that tells which element in the page they selected.

I am doing all of this because my boss (uses Frontpage and loves the <BLINK> tag) insists on being able to edit content on our new HTML::Mason based site.
