Uhm, not quite. First of all Jürgen is talking about Saxon, not SAX. Saxon is an alternative XSLT processor, see <http://saxon.sourceforge.net/> SAX and DOM are two different approaches to parsing a document, a pull based model is yet another approach (used by the .NET XML parser classes or StAX <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StAX> for example). While I don't know which approach Xalan-J uses when parsing the source document or the stylesheet, I'd be suprised if it was pure DOM.
