It should be possible to use it. libxml2 provides bindings for PHP, PHP
has configuration option to use libxml2. However,

http://am.php.net/xml
http://am.php.net/xslt

the standard PHP extensions, are based on Expat and Sablotron.

Ironically enough, 9 of first 10 documents found on 'expat libxml'
are about problems. Probably, it just means that it is used by
many people.

The distribution provides examples of use of RNV (actually, RVP,
the validation engine built without parser, with simple half-dozen
commands protocol) with Perl and Python. PHP has proc_open() too, and
using RNV with PHP would just mean writing about 100 lines in PHP
once.

No, it was me who triggered it. And I am sorry too.

I am interested, but is it just the standard wiki syntax, or is
it described on the site? I could not find.
