In my maybe-a-bit-emacs-biased opinion, PSGML makes it a _lot_ easier. Emacs does some simple validation for you, and if you use its indentation, completion and insertion features it goes a pretty long way to make sure you don't enter invalid tags. If you browse around on the PSGML menus, you will find a number of useful features like "Insert Element" (C-c C-e), "Edit Attributes" (C-c C-a), "Hide Attributes", "Fold Element", "Fold Subelements" and so on. Especially the folding stuff is nice to give you a "top down" view of the document. - Stig -- PHP 4 Beta
