highlighting/fontification of xml tags

[Christian Mallwitz]

hi,

I use xml-mode to edit xml files. my problem: highlighting all tags in 
one color, all comments in one color and all text in one color is rather 
silly. I would like to define a list which color certain tags should 
have and put that e.g. in my .emacs file.

I had already a look at sgml-tag-face-alist in sgml-mode but couldn't 
figure out what to do with it. can somebody provide me with an example? 
or is there a more clever way to handle the situation? I could live with 
a fixed set of color definition for xml tag names applying to all my xml 
files...

I use emacs 21.2.1 on W2K and the xml-mode that comes with it (derived 
from sgml-mode).

thanks
christian
