Both SAX and DOM are used to parse the XML document. Both has advantages and disadvantages and can be used in our programming depending on the situation
SAX:
1. Parses node by node
2. Doesnt store the XML in memory
3. We cant insert or delete a node
4. Top to bottom traversing
DOM
1. Stores the entire XML document into memory before processing
2. Occupies more memory
3. We can insert or delete nodes
4. Traverse in any direction.
If we need to find a node and doesnt need to insert or delete we can go with SAX itself otherwise DOM provided we have more memory.

The main difference between DOM and SAX is in the representation of the XML document they use. DOM uses an in-memory tree-like structure, whereas, SAX uses linear event driven approach.

InquisitiveNomad

You can also create an XML file through the Java XML APIs and some simple Java.io File writer methods. Use the appendChild() method in the Node class for creating the tree structure of an XML. Use the FileWriter methods to save it into a file.

XML and HTML were designed with different goals: XML was designed to describe data and to focus on what data is. HTML was designed to display data and to focus on how data looks.That is HTML is about displaying information, while XML is about describing information.
