Hi
yes, kinda offtopic, but here's an answer.....
I use xerces and came up with the following:
if you look at the InputSource constructors you will see that you can
pass it a StringReader... and a StringReader has a constructor that you
can pass a String....
<snip>
String theXML;
theXML = httpservletrequest.getParameter("xml");
if (theXML == null) {
// houston, we have a problem
} else{
// do stuff with the xml
try {
XMLReader xr = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader();
MyHandler handler = new MyHandler();
xr.setContentHandler(handler);
xr.setErrorHandler(handler);
StringReader sr = new StringReader(theXML);
xr.parse(new InputSource(sr));
}
}catch (SAXException se){
//dostuff
}catch (IOException ioe){
//do stuff
}
}
