An XML parser goes through text documents containing XML trees and allows the information in the hierarchy to be used. Use this tag for problems implementing an XML parser or generated by the use of an existing parser in a given language.

An XML parser converts an XML document into an XML DOM object - which can then be manipulated with JavaScript. All modern browsers have a built-in XML parser.

The XML document specification places requirements on what an XML processor must do and not do, but the application is outside its scope. The processor (as the specification calls it) is often referred to colloquially as an XML parser.
