The 2 functions are "pXw4Pa_read()" and "pXw4Pa_write()".

They can be used to store/swap data blocks of your programs to an xml file simply and quickly, without making use of xml parsers or other big stuff.

Limitations:
no support for empty tags, like < entry name="x"/ >
Slow processing of large arrays.
It's due to the recursive management of the data. For this reason pXw4Pa may not be the best choice for real time management of large information archives.

What's New in This Release:
Both functions were totally rewritten.
Serialization is no longer used.
The read function now uses the PHP XML parser, which displays useful information on badly formatted XML.
Compared to version 0.8, the functions are now around half the size and twice as fast.
The supported data types are string, integer, double (=floating point), boolean, and NULL.
The "type" attribute was added to the XML structure.
Some documentation changes and some other minor changes were made.
