well-formed document with DOMParser

Hello,

When I parse some content coming from HTTP with the DOM parser, I get the following error :

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The root element is required in a well-formed document.

My question is how can I get a Well form document before to parse ?

Thanks a lot,
