At the suggestion of Mike Kay, I have enhanced DOMParser to support SAX Locators and InputSources properly. Reiterating, DOMParser conforms to the definition of a SAX parser, but reads from a DOM Document representing an XML document, rather than from a textual representation of XML. A new class called DOMSource, a subclass of InputSource, can now be used to encapsulate a DOM Document for SAX parsing. Obviously, SAX parsers other than DOMParser will be clueless if passed such an InputSource! DOMParser also now implements Locator, although it returns no useful information from it. However, the non-interface method DOMParser.getCurrentNode() can be used to determine the current DOM Node being parsed.
