Once a matching element was found it would be written to another XML file or converted to a Java object for use by my program. I do not want to have to read the entire document into memory, like you are required to with JDOM. (The idea is to read/parse a large XML document, and only pull out what you need.) Can anyone reccomend an XML API that would meet these needs, or should I be trying to implement this on my own by adding a layer on top of SAX itself? (I program in Java.) Probably the easiest way to do this given the restriction not to load the entire document into memory is is by subclassing the NodeFactory class in XOM. http://www.cafeconleche.org/XOM/ Without the memory restriction I'd be looking at XPath. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@m...
