This was one of my initial concerns on the DOM - I too will be working on ticker-type streams. I nearly jumped in early in this conversation to agree with the 'others' - ie the SAX approach is just as important as DOM and the 2 should both be of similar (standards) status. I held off because I'm new to XML, and I wasn't sure if my alternative wasn't too obvious to mention. I thought that each tick should be treated as a document. The client would have to arrange that each 'document' so received would have to be built, and then a document fragment extracted and inserted into a client-held document (updating display etc. via DOM events as appropriate). This approach requires the client of the XML data-source to be aware of this of course, which may be a killer for genericity. Am I way off base here - and if so, could someone point me to current thinking on this issue (I've browsed _a lot_ and seen little/nothing).
