[lazarus] XML

Has anyone yet implemented an XML reader / writer that supports more
than just the xmlcfg.pp file does?

For instance, I need to interpret the following:

<OFX>
<SIGNONMSGSRSV1>
<SONRS>
<STATUS>
<CODE>0
<SEVERITY>INFO
</STATUS>
<STATUS>
<CODE>2
<SEVERITY>ITEM 2
</STATUS>
</SONRS>
</SIGNONMSGSRSV1>
</OFX>

And view it something like:

OFX
 |-SIGNONMSGSRSV1
   |-SONRS
     +-Status
     | |-Code  (value = 0)
     | |-Severity  (Value = "INFO")
     +-Status
       |-Code  (value = 2)
       |-Severity  (Value = "ITEM 2")

Notice there are two different "Status" nodes, and the values are not
within the <> symbols for Code or Severity.

In other words, I'm trying to interpret an OFX bank file, and it's in a
similar format as above... I really don't want to write a custom XML
parser for it if I can keep from it.
