hmmm ...

ok, let me make sure i understand.

the code in "sax.pp" is not for general use as a sax parser but is in
support of some other code, somewhere else, for doing html parsing ?

ok.

that's kind of a bummer.

i guess i'll have to go back to the drawing board for what i'm trying to do.

marshalling the entire XML document into memory is potentially
problematic for my application.
