   Re: [xml-dev] Push and Pull?

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

From where I sit they are very different. Batch parsing is loading an entire
stream or string into the DOM in one step with a loadXML or similar method,
then interacting with the XML from the DOM. Pull parsing is at the other end
of the horizon where you iterate through every node in your document
one-by-one (text, element, PI, comment, etc) and perform operations utilizing
the ones you are interested in.

At least that's what I gathered from the descriptions I've seen. YMMV.

I will not rely entirely upon "totally reliable" spells that can be
