Hi,
My application need to read some parameter file in XML format. Can some one suggest me a very fast and small footprint parser?
Thanks

Thank you for the clarification between DOM and SAX XML parsers. My first question still stands. What is JAXP? And what is JDOM? Thank you.

I used the JAXP parser. As a beginer, I feel that it is not diffucult to use or get a particular parser. But rather it is more diffcult to find out how to use a particular parser with suitable examples such that they satisfy your needs in the initial stage.
I found it eaisest to begin with the sun's JAXP parser.
Hope standardisation and secifications would cause more ease in programming practices.

Well Stanley, you sure are learning fast..
1) XSL is used to transfrom xml into html. True. But remember that html is also XML ( if it is well formed ). so a more generic description would be XSL is used to transform xml in to another xml( which could be html).
2)XSL uses XSLT to do transformation. If I am correct ( and that is a big question ) XSL can be viewed as combination of XSLT and XPath. The XSLT is for XSL(Transformation). So you can say that XSL engines use XSL to do transformation. XSL and XSLT are sometimes used interchangably so you can say XSLT engines use XSLT to do transformation.
