Search on Google: Parsing with DOM and Parsing with SAX. You'll find loads of tutorials and examples there.

What have you done to solve this problem on your own? We're not here to do your work for you.

Why use both? One is much more suitable than the other for specific situations.

SAX parses through one element at a time. It is often much more useful when you want to parse very large files or not even finish the entire file. DOM creates a sort of hierarchy and stores it, so it is more useful in smaller files (like this one I guess).

Good luck,
