I'm stuck with a similar conundrum, only I am just starting out. Up until this point, I've cobbled together XML using the CursorToXML() function built in to Visual FoxPro, but that's only suitable for flat, repetitious XML. With the FoxCentral RSS File, I just manually wrapped header and footer elements around transformed XML. But with some other projects, like SMBMeta, I need to create truly hierarchical, multiple one-to-zero-or-many structures, and CursorToXML isn't built for that. I'm looking for a simple "Hello, World" example of creating a document with XMLDOM or another tool, adding attributes, elements and nodes to it. Anyone got one handy?

I've mentioned before I love the tabbed browsing feature in Mozilla. I often skim a hundred article extracts in my News Aggregator, rigt-mouse-click and "Open in New Tab" all of those of interest. As a few seconds allows during the day, I peruse those articles, and right-mouse-click and create new tabs in turn, closing old or irrelevant ones along the way. At this point, I have eleven tabs opened.
The problem comes with the close box. That dratted little "X" in the upper right corner will irrevocably, irretrievably close everything. I usually just mean to close a tab, or minimize the window. But, no, *whoosh* and it's all gone. Solutions I'd welcome:
An "Are you sure (Y/N)?" messagebox. Normally, I detest these, but I'd welcome the option in this case.
An option to restore all tabs when I next start Mozilla. In this version (1.3b), it can open the one last site opened, but not the contents of all the tabs
Disabling the close button altogether, forcing me to select File|Close or Alt-F4 to close the main window
I regularly lose my work through my own clumsiness. It sure would be nice to have the computer help me help myself.
