I considered another option of suggesting factoring out this whole per node block, but to do that we would have to do something a bit odd with the return value as we have 3 options. * error * do not parse any more children. * continue to parse children. So I think in this case Tobias' solution is the best one available. Thanks, Jonathan >=20 > Regards, > Markus
