Michael,
you might try something like...
java.lang.String xmlString = getWeather();
SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
spf.setNamespaceAware(true);
spf.setValidating(dtdValidate || xsdValidate);
SAXParser saxParser = spf.newSAXParser();
XMLReader xmlReader = saxParser.getXMLReader();
final SAXParseFTSE tHandler = new SAXParseFTSE (Debug);
xmlReader.setContentHandler(tHandler);
xmlReader.setErrorHandler(tHandler);
ByteArrayInputStream bais =
new ByteArrayInputStream (xmlString.getBytes());
xmlReader.parse( new InputSource(bais) );
bais.close();
You may have to pre-process your XML string for ampersands and quotes before throwing
it at the parser.
Rey.

> Forecast for TONIGHT is MOSTLY CLOUDY DURING THE EARLY EVENING...THEN
