javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser is an interface (i.e. API) which is part of
JAXP. org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser is part of the implementation
(i.e. not an API). You should generally be coding to the standard APIs.

If you don't already have it, it's available for download here:
http://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/download.cgi
