Does SAX keep track of parent-child elements?

Hi guys,

Does the SAX parser (including the progressive parsing version) provide a
kind of stack for parent-child elements (i.e., does it keep track of
parent-child elements) or do I have to programmatically do this myself?

Thanks

Does SAX keep track of parent-child elements?The scanner does, since one is required in order to do well-formedness checking. But it is not exposed to you. So you'll have to do your own.
