Every where I look I see Java classes and Java Docs .. hell even the SAX2 book from O'Reilly is based on the JAVA implementation.
So basically I have a rather long road ahead of me. The only good news is that I only need certain elements out of the XML string and the format will rarely change .. I actually started writing the tag I need using the Perl regex for C++. I have a book on order called C++XML , I am hopping this helps :) Thanks for the info At 08:56 AM 3/6/2002 -0800, you wrote: >In my opinion, SAX is the way to go.
