think I was thinking the idea was something different where new xml files were
presented and had to be compared. What you want is a listener.
There was a lot of discussion about adding listeners to JDOM early on and I
was a proponent at the time. However, the idea was scrapped in favor of
a simpler api. I agree with this now and seeing how time consuming it
has been to get to where we are now, I think its the correct approach for
JDOM. On the other hand, many improvements where made to make it easy to
subclass JDOM and add listeners to your hearts content ;^)</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
