SAXParser's DefaultHandler provides a callback for public void characters(public char[] ch, int start, int length, etc.) and throws a SAXException for reading element text contents. You can read the char array in any invocation of the DefaultHandler and convert it into a String object for your use. However, this single character() call is not sufficient to read entire element text.

If you have a hot tip and we publish it, we'll pay you. However, due to accounting overhead we no longer pay $10 for a single tip submission. You must accumulate 10 acceptable tips to receive payment. Be sure to include a clear explanation of what the technique does and why it's useful. If it includes code, limit it to 20 lines if possible. Submit your tip here.
