KoHTML isn't a parser or anything like that, it's just a little bit
more than a KOfficeified ;) browser-frontend to khtml :-)
(the major difference between konqueror's web-browser mode and kohtml is the
support for the koffice printing extension)

But I in regard to xml parsing you (rupert) might be interested in libkoml in
koffice/lib/
