John, I am creating the object in memory and i am waiting until i see the end of the container element. Maybe I am using the term "container" too loosely. Here is an example of a correct doc: <ncml> <Add> <Person> .... </Person> </Add> ----> when the documentHandler gets endElement("Add", attList), it addes the person to the db <Add> <Car> .... </Car> </Add> ----> when the documentHandler gets endElement("Add", attList), it addes the car to the db </ncml> Here is an incorrect doc: <ncml> <Add> <Person> .... </Person> <Car> .... </Car> </Add> -----> the parse error is thrown AFTER the parser forwards the endElement("Add", attList) event to the documentHandler (thus, after I have added the Car- the Person gets overwritten by the Car since there are 2 objs). </ncml> I guess I could wait until the end of the <ncml>, but we are using this to do batch loading and may therefore be seeing xml documents with thousands and thousands of Adds. -----Original Message----- From: John Cowan [mailto:jcowan@r...] Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2000 2:30 PM To: Laura Neitzel Cc: 'Arnaud Le Hors'; xerces-j-dev@x...; xml-dev@x...

Is it when the offending second element is seen, or when the container element is closed? Either is a plausible implementation strategy. Expecting an error to be fired *before* the previous element is ended is probably too much to ask. A possibility: create the object in memory when you see the initial endElement, check for validity when you see the container's endElement. -- Schlingt dreifach einen Kreis um dies! || John Cowan <jcowan@r...> Schliesst euer Aug vor heiliger Schau, || http://www.reutershealth.com Denn er genoss vom Honig-Tau, || http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Und trank die Milch vom Paradies. -- Coleridge (tr.
