Hi Carlos,
	I don't have an handy answer ... but I can suggest you to have a
look to the Xalan examples, there are 2 or interest:
PIPE
SAX2SAX
The mail that you point is related to XT and there is also the suggested
solution. I noticed that internal code for XT must be changed to read the
content of the InputStream:

>I've included an extra method on this class which returns the internal
PipedInputStream buffer:
>      public byte[] getStream() {
>           return buffer;
>       }

and the solution to pull out the null value was:

> public char[] getStream()
>      {
>         byte[] XToutput = // get buffer from pipedinputstream
>         return (new String(XToutput).trim().toCharArray());
>      }

Now if you want to try XT this could be a good starting point. Otherwise I
suggest you to send an e-mail to the Xalan people (or look to the archives)
because I guess this problem will be well known.

I'd like to talk a little bit of what I am currently doing ....
I have substantially improved the parser and simplified it. Now I will
basically Tockenize the input stream and obtain a sequence of OpenTags,
Content and CloseTags.
This is a quite big change but I think it's important, at least will resolve
the parsing errors and problems (circa 90% of current implementation).
As usual I'm in shortage of spare time, so I ask for a vote to put this
"unstable" version in the CVS (maybe in a different dir) and try to test and
improve all together.
So, for me: +1
