Thanks, gentlemen for the prompt and proper answer. Python is a good approach, but a pure PD solution is always the most welcome.
Updates with some results are coming soon.

how do you convert webpage content to XML in *any language*?
attached is a very simplistic example, exploiting the underspecification of your problem space.
the patch uses mrpeach/net and mrpeach/binfile to demonstration purposes (fetching the HTML from a live website, saving the XML to a file), but the actual "conversion" is done in Pd-vanilla.
i haven't tested it excessively, but the conversion i did test (the one encoded into the example patch) validates as correct XML.
