I think we're almost there, sorry for the various mistakes. If you look in the source for clojure.xml, you can see that the default "startparse" argument for xml/parse is
(defn startparse-sax [s ch] (.. SAXParserFactory (newInstance) (newSAXParser) (parse s ch))) and we've only gotten as far as the newSAXParser part with the definition of parser. So: (defn startparse [s ch] (.parse parser s ch)) (defn parse-xml [source] (xml/parse source startparse)) should finally do it. I do apologize, I'd forgotten about the function wrapper part of this machinery. I hope this has been helpful despite my mistakes.
