doubt in SAX

[kumarth ravi]

Hi,
I have written a program to parse the xml file with SAX in java.

The SAX recognized all the elements ,but when it comes to the following tag
<Type></Type>, it is recognizing the first one(<Type> ,but unable to recognize the end element (</Type> .I tried ,but I could not get the solution for this. Can you help me.can you give me sample program on this.

thank you

</Type> is not an end element, it's the end tag of the <Type> element. </Type> cannot exist without <Type>, and vice versa (although they can be merged to <Type /> ) .

What you probably want in your SAX parser, is to handle the ending of the element. If you are using DefaultHelper, the method is called endElement.
