XOM API for Processing XML with Java

Elliotte,

using this does not seem to fix the prolem either:

StreamingImgLister sil = new StreamingImgLister();
Builder builder = new Builder(false,sil);

I had not noticed this constructor in the JavaDocs until today.

If I do:

                long before = System.currentTimeMillis();
                System.out.println("before: "+before);
                Document doc = builder.build(mark_up,"");
                long after = System.currentTimeMillis();
                System.out.println("after: "+after);

I see:

before: 1095672457818
<img src="pix/cinema.gif" />
<img src="pix/games.gif" />
<img src="pix/travel.gif" />
<img src="pix/lovelife.gif" />
<img src="pix/weather.gif" />
<img src="pix/music.gif" />
<img src="pix/sport.gif" />
<img src="pix/search.gif" />
<img src="pix/more.gif" />
after: 1095672471307

1095672457818 - 1095672471307 = 13 Seconds

am I misunderstanding the purpose of the false
parameter to the constructor?
