This tutorial introduces the event-driven mechanism for accessing XML documents, SAX. This is the fastest and least memory-intensive protocol for dealing with XML documents, but it requires much more programming than DOM, and the event-driven model is a bit harder to visualize. Cross indexed with both definitions and other tutorials. Comprises Part II of a larger work; Working with XML, The Java API for Xml Parsing (JAXP) Tutorial.
