Don't re-invent the XML wheel. I suspect TEI Lite will do all you wanted to do. There's some good documentation:

For conversion of your documents to other formats, you should be looking at XSLT http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSLT where by use of an XSLT template, you can convert from an XML document into any other kind of document.
The Hungarian XML format I linked to is, unbeknownst to me until now, TEI or slightly modified TEI.

Thanks for these links pdurrant!
