## Description

`XMLParser` provides validating SAX and DOM parsers for well-formed XML documents.
It also provides a DOM API for manipulating documents, namespace support, and an
optional `XMLWriter` for writing documents. Validation and namespace checking are
enabled by default, but not resolution of external entities.

Implements:

- http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/
- http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/
- http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-id/
- http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/

## Installation

```Smalltalk
Metacello new
  baseline: 'XMLParser';
  repository: 'github://pharo-contributions/XML-XMLParser/src';
  load.
```

## How to use

Use the `XMLDOMParser` to parse a URL:

```Smalltalk
(XMLDOMParser parseURL: 'https://www.w3schools.com/xml/simple.xml') inspect
```

or give an XML file directly:

```Smalltalk
|xmlString|
xmlString := '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<countries>
  <country code="af" handle="afghanistan" continent="asia" iso="4">Afghanistan</country>
  <country code="al" handle="albania" continent="europe" iso="8">Albania</country>
  <country code="dz" handle="algeria" continent="africa" iso="12">Algeria</country>
</countries>'.

(XMLDOMParser parse: xmlString) document root nodes inspect
```
