Hi Ken, Seems fine to me. I cannot reproduce the error(s) you're seeing. Running it through the sax.Counter sample it completes normally:
java sax.Counter file:///D:/xmldocs/objbank_b.xml file:///D:/xmldocs/objbank_b.xml: 375 ms (18340 elems, 10035 attrs, 0 spaces, 735650 chars). so I imagine there's something else going on here, for example some InputStream which is corrupting the document before the parser sees it or you're using some old version of Xerces that had a bug or the JDK fork (for which I keep hearing about issues that Apache Xerces has never had).
