Excerpted from web site: "This module can either create form field values from XML based on XQL style queries (full XQL is _not_ supported - this module is designed for speed), or it can create XML from form values. There are 2 key functions: writeXML and readXML."

"The (toXML) module takes form fields given in a specialised format, and outputs them to XML based on that format. The idea is that you can create forms that define the resulting XML at the back end."

"readXML takes either a file handle or text as the first parameter and a list of queries following that. The XML is searched for the queries and it returns a list of tuples that are the query and the match."
