    XML Parsers

    What is available in terms of xml Parsers? The only one I know of is the good old msxml parser.

    I think all the open source parsers are based on Expat - Perl and PHP's are based on this, and I think Mozilla uses it.

    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.

    Xerces, libxml2 and expat are the most important open-source parsers.

    CornedBee who developed libxml2 and expat? Haven't heard of them. I just grabbed Xerces last night. Gonna test it out tonight or tommorow. Should i have downloaded Cocoon instead?

    libxml2 is part of the Gnome project and is distributed under the LGPL.
    Expat is a stream-only parser (does not build a DOM) developed originally by one James Clark and hosted at SourceForge, distributed under the MIT license, which I believe is roughly equivalent to the BSD license.
