I don't believe the SAX parse generates a characters() event for empty tags.
It's been my experience that it simply calls startElement() immediately
followed by endElement().

Are you using a xerces parser when putting the text, I think xerces DOM
Parser
recognized this "<value/>" as a node. While using SAX parser, it would fire
startElement event "value", characters Event "" or null , then endElement
"value".
just my thoughts.
