I am using

XMLReader parser = 
XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader("org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");

and setting feature to continue after fatal-error is

parser.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/continue-after-fatal-error", 
true);

I'll have to work around the other problem, thanks very much for your input.


Cheers
