Ronald Bourret asked how do you create a Document using various products.
For the record, here are the relevant drivers from SAXON:

Datachannel:

    public Document build (InputSource source)
        throws java.io.IOException, org.xml.sax.SAXException
    {
        com.datachannel.xml.om.Document doc = new
com.datachannel.xml.om.Document();
        try {
            if (null != source.getByteStream()) {
                
                // byte stream supplied
                
                doc.loadFromInputStream(source.getByteStream());
                
            } else if (null != source.getCharacterStream()) {
                
                // character stream supplied [horrible code and not tested!]
                
                Reader r = source.getCharacterStream();
                StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(10000);
                char[] cbuf = new char[10000];
                int bytes = 0;
                while (true) {
                    bytes = r.read(cbuf);
                    if (bytes<0) break;     // end of file
                    sb.append(cbuf, 0, bytes);
                }
                doc.loadXML(sb.toString());
                
            } else {

                // URL supplied
                
                doc.load(source.getSystemId());
            }
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            throw new SAXException(e);
        }

        return doc;
    }

Docuverse:

    public Document build(InputSource source)
    {
        DOM dom = new DOM();
        dom.setReader(new SAXONFreedomDriver());        
        return dom.openDocument(source);
    }

    // inner class

    /**
    *
    * SAXONFreedomDriver<BR>
    * Subclasses DOM-SDK's SAXReader class to use a supplied parser<BR>
    * This class is used to interface SAXON with Docuverse
    * and is of no direct concern to applications.
    *
    */

    private class SAXONFreedomDriver extends
com.docuverse.dom.util.SAXReader
    {
        protected Parser createParser (com.docuverse.dom.DOM dom)
        {
            return givenparser;
        }
    }

IBM:

    public Document build (InputSource source)
        throws java.io.IOException, org.xml.sax.SAXException
    {
        Document doc = null;
        com.ibm.xml.parser.Parser p;
        try {
            p = new com.ibm.xml.parser.Parser(source.getSystemId());
            if (null != source.getByteStream()) {
                doc = p.readStream(source.getByteStream());
            } else if (null != source.getCharacterStream()) {
                doc = p.readStream(source.getCharacterStream());
            } else {
                doc = p.readStream(
                        p.getInputStream(
                            source.getSystemId(),
                            null,
                            source.getSystemId()));
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            p = null;
            throw new SAXException(e);
        }
        return doc;
    }

ORACLE:

    public Document build(InputSource source)
            throws java.io.IOException, org.xml.sax.SAXException
    {
        oracle.xml.parser.XMLParser p = new oracle.xml.parser.XMLParser();
        p.parse(source);
        return p.getDocument();
    }

SUN:

    public Document build(InputSource source)
        throws java.io.IOException, org.xml.sax.SAXException
    {
        XmlDocumentBuilder b = new XmlDocumentBuilder();
        b.setDisableNamespaces(true);
        givenparser.setDocumentHandler(b);
        givenparser.parse(source);
        return b.getDocument();
    }


Interesting if nothing else for the sheer variety of different ways of
achieving the same thing! Note some of these allow you to select your parser
first, others don't.
