no the default error handler it will throw an Exception, as stated in the earlier e-mail you can create your own error handlers

and have them handle the error the way you want to.

Hi ,
    Thank you very much for the info, I think that will help me. But I
have one more question, isnt it true that when I call xerces DOM parser
from my Java programme to parse a given XML document then it terminates
the program, if the XML document is invalid. Actually I dont have much
idea about these parsers, this is what I heard from one of my colleague.

Xerces provides an option to continue parsing in case of fatal errors .You need to set below mentioned feature  see attached sample.

http://apache.org/xml/features/continue-after-fatal-error[1]

If you have some sample programs using Xerces parser, I would be
grateful to you if you can send it to me.
with warm regards,
  

        I have attached a small program . Please download xerces2 [2] and you will find more samples under samples directory.
Apache website also has faqs[3].
